Professor Brian Cox on Newsnight

giagia — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 21:54:51 +0000

There have been many times over the years when I’ve been extremely proud of my lovely husband. His appearance on Newsnight the other night is right at the bloody top of the list. Delight with me in the massive smackdown he gives to Sir David King who, believe it or not, is the President of the British Association of the Advancement of Science. Seriously.

“On this day, of all days.”

More Brian Cox On Horizon

The director of Horizon, Paul Olding, has put up more behind-the-scenes clips from the new one on Time.

Why should we want to understand Time?

How the minus sign protects the past from the future.

On Life in the Universe.

Loads more here.

Torchwood

I just had an email from Phil Plait with a link to a very funny reaction to the season finale of Torchwood. Oh! How I laughed. Obviously, if you don’t know what happened and don’t want to know what happened, don’t watch.

Yes, yes, I’ve seen the other ones using the same clip.

Attention TV Professionals

You are no longer needed. This is better than anything on ITV. Pack your bags. Goodbye.

“Why Didn’t You Invent YouTube?”

giagia — Tue, 10 Oct 2006 06:19:04 +0000

The alarm went off just after 7. ‘The Today Programme’ popped on. I decided to listen to the news for a bit like I normally do when Brian isn’t around (when he’s here I tend to turn it off right away to let him sleep)… The story about Google buying YouTube came on. From under the duvet on the other side of the bed I heard a croaky:

“Why didn’t you invent YouTube?”

Which Channels Are You Watching?

giagia — Thu, 07 Sep 2006 13:20:01 +0000

I’m spending more and more time on YouTube. I thought I’d share some of my recent favourites.

Adam Buxton of Adam and Joe fame. His Tiny TV Boss is not only very funny, but an accurate protrayal of British Television Executives.

Film Maker Dot Com is the YouTube presence of The Media Lounge. You might recognise some of the recent videos. :)

Geriactric 1927 is what the internet is all about.

The Big Lebowski- The F*cking Short Version (Needs sound. Probably not safe for work. Wear headphones.)
