New Series

Unread post by Fujita Phil »

If you just saw "Eating Media Lunch" on TV2 just now, you would have seen a segment on Geoff Mackley.

For those with SkyTV, they announced a new series called "Danger Man" starting on Discovery Channel next month.

I'm sure it will be worth a look and hopefully good to see something new and fresh on this channel (I think I've seen all the current shows like "Natures Fury" too many times)

Actually that was another that annoyed me about that movie "The Day after Tomorrow"... some of the "footage" shown was of roofs being lifted etc. We have seen these images many times before on those doco's. Nothing worse han siting there going "Seen it, seen that too!" I understand they wanted realism but most weather freaks have seen the best available footage out there.
There is no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes.

This programme series started on the telly last night on Sky TV on the Discovery Channel.
I fell asleep after 10 minutes and then when I did wake up, I couldn't keep my eyes open so I went off to bed.
(No I hadn't been drinking!! :roll:)
I can't watch it tonight but on Thursday I hope it may have something interesting so we can all watch it around at Steven's house.
I suppose they will repeat it at some other time?

Yes, I've been thinking about where Gary has been for a while now. :o Gary are you there!? :)

I was going to email but got caught up in quite a bit of work recently and unfortunately forgot.
