Do You Know What Time It Is?

I know that I’ve grumbled before about the fact that Horizon – the BBC’s once-proud flagship of its science programming – has become a shadow of its former self: dumbed-down beyond belief, or needlessly sexed-up with flashy graphics and bizarre camera angles.

 

Well, I’m really pleased to be able to say that last night’s episode: Do You Know What Time It Is? showed a return to the form of the classic Horizons. Presented by physicist Professor Brian Cox, it was both engrossing and mind-expanding. Simply brilliant.
