Last night on BBC4, More old Jews telling Jokes. Great fun, and surely one of the cheapest programmes to make there's ever been.

I'm really enjoying Michael Portillo's Continental train journeys. Amazing scenery, loads of historical content and some interesting characters.

It's ok. I've thought of an even better alternative. Pub.

I'm sure there are a fair few on here that would have enjoyed Speed Dreams: The Fastest Place on Earth, last night on BBC2.
It follows six British teams and their speed record attempts, five on bikes, one in a car. A lot of footage of hairy blokes in sheds, tinkering with a pretty wide range of machinery.
The first episode ended with them arriving at the Bonneville Salt Flats, so next week we'll see whether they succeed or fail.

I enjoyed the programme about the 50th anniversary of the recording of the Beatles first album.
Joss Stone is a good singer but a moron.
beverley Knight blew the whole thing to bits with Twist and Shout, and it was good to see half of the Mersey Beats back together-very underrated band.

Been really enjoying "wonders of life" having this on straight after "Africa" finished the BBC have been spoiling me recently. They really do those types of programs so much better than anyone else, the camera work on Africa was out of this world.
