British educational science programmes are actually a lot like this. (EDIT: No shit, Sherlock, it's a satire. Perhaps I should have worded it: British educational science programmes are EXACTLY like this.)

By the way, if you have not seen the Day Today or Brass Eye, they follow in the same vein as this, but instead satirise media rather than innocent school programming. They are fuck*ng hilarious.

I quite liked the igloo - y'know, being from Alaska and all.

Youngest West and I watched all 8 of these tonight.  We heartily endorse them.

I ended up downloading these (and the second series, which I don't thinkis included in the eight...) a while back, having vaguely recalled them from TV. I do like Serafinowicz, who crops up in a fair amount. And I grew up staying up 'til 4am  watching Open University programs regularly, which OK,  tended to be slightly higher brow than the 'for schools' programming, but of about the same standard of production (though with infiitely more amusing hair styles, and often not white lab coats to fall back on).

This made my day. I was sort of feeling rotten and now it's all better.


Thants. Thants so much.

Okay... I can't stop watching them. I can't stop!

Incidentally, I'd love to have either the Look Around You opening theme music, or the "Little penis" song from this segment as my ringtone.

Anyone have suggestions for how to acquire them and get them small enough for my cell?

Edit: I found "Little penis." Still need to shrink it for my cell, though. Now to look for the LAY theme! To the intarwebs!
