I’ve still got a soft-spot for the older educational programming. It’s the first place I heard about Helvetica Syndrome, and I can’t imagine how I would have survived this long without it.
Thanks ants.
It’s amusing how many comments haven’t twigged
Germs are from Germany
Sophie was much cooler before she started working with Mark Corrigan.
Please ensure you have your copy book at hand as you will be asked to take down notes from the screen at various points throughout the post
Write that down
That’s right. Calcium
Experiment one.
Synthesizer Patel.
The boiling egg experiment was brilliant
Mathematical Anti Telharsic Harfatum Septomin
IMHOTEP IS INVISIBLE
ME-DI-BOT
Thanks, Hanks. Thanks.
Well, it’s no Look and Read that’s for sure.
Cap becomes cape with me, tap becomes tape with me… magic magic E
I’m rappin’ all day and I’m rappin’ all night
I’m glad so many comments get it. I was talking about Look Around You to some similarly-aged friends the other day, and none of them had ever heard of it. Clearly went to some posh school where they didn’t wheel the TV out for science lessons.
Oscar winning presenter too.
Not sure this “rap” music is going to take off.
Oh, I loved this. I remember first watching it thinking what a weird time for a boring educational programme until, without any preamble. It cited John Major as a reincarnation of the Egyptian god Tefnut.
Synthesizer!
But who’s better; His Royal Highness, Sir Prince Charles, or the ghost of Tchaikovsky?
I still sometimes get “Hey now little mouse” in my head out of nowhere
We are using AC/DC, because it’s heavy metal.
I remember it well. It was on Adult Swim in the US.
An Oscar winner and Darth Maul all in one photo. It doesn’t get better than that.
Yet another thing Olivia Coleman was in.
“You can pick up germs from a variety of sources, and because they’re invisible they’re almost impossible to see” is one of the most important science lessons I ever had.
