(Yes, a day late. Like everyone else in the UK, I was full of cold yesterday. I’ll put the one for the 20th out later on.)

Time for Eureka (BBC2), a reliably relatable teatime programme looking at everyday inventions, presented by Sarah Greene and Paul McDowell, aided by Madeline Smith, Sylvester McCoy and the always-welcome Wilf Lunn. Comes with a ‘Produced and Directed by Clive Doig’ guarantee, so you know it’s worth the trouble.

A clear precursor of Horrible Histories. Arguably.

The episode on YouTube sadly isn’t that correct Episode Six, but worth seeing nonetheless.
