This is the kind of thing that makes paying my licence fee worth it.
BTW, if you watch this and you don't pay the licence fee, you will get 7 years bad luck 😉
 
Very good, quality documentary about chaos/fractals.

Glad I'll have something profesionnal and convincing from BBC to show to my skeptic friends.
 
This along with Prof Brian Cox's 'Wonders of the solar system', the 'Planet Earth' & 'Life' nature docs... :shock:
No other broadcaster in the world has put out quality programs like that

The guy who presents these chaos theory videos also did the 'Atom' series which was pretty great aswell

I'm more into a spiritual/meditational worldview but science is like the poetry that trys to capture it all, guys like Prof Jim Al-Khalili, Prof Brian Cox, David Attenborough all seem to radiate such passion in their work, it really shows. I like that when Prof Brian Cox was asked about God he said he doesn't want an ultimate answer because he is a scientist & always wants more interesting things to discover, which perfectly describes the difference between religion/science, one needs an ultimate answer, the other doesn't actually really want to find one!

License what now? They actually sent a letter demanding we pay TV license a few months back, the letter also said we could possibly expect an in person inspection if we did not pay up.
As well as this i heard an advertisement for TV licensing on the radio. It was aimed at parents, encouraging them to buy students TV licenses for their laptops....
