BBC Precision: Measure of All Things
The BBC recently did a three part series titled Precisoin: The Measure
of All Things.
Part 1 is Time and Distance
Part 2 Mass and Moles
Part 3 Is Heat, Light and Electricity
Probably nothing ground breaking for any time nuts but may be
interesting to watch with friends and amily.

Note the BBC only makes programs playable for a short duration (I
think 30 days), and there is only 5 days left. Even if you download a
program, it wont run beyond its "expiry date". Not that I suspect it
would be too hard for a time-nut to circumvent it - set back the time
of machine, run in a virtual machine etc.

And BBC tv shows are not available (legitimately) for download or on
demand outside the UK anyway.

What is your point? Would you prefer that I only post things that are
relevant to time nuts on this side of the pond?
I err happened to see it on bit torrent, quite accidently of course, don't quite know how I managed to end up there but it did catch my eye.

How true and how and unfortunate.
Luckily with the speed and pervasiveness of the internet, you can often
find many of their programs elsewhere for viewing. For example a quick
search shows that at least part 2 is available on youtube and quite
likely parts 1 and 3.

I'm sure Dan's comment was well meant - he was just stating a fact,
which was just as relevant as mine about the deadline. If someone
outside the UK wanted to watch it, they know they would have to book a
flight!

For info, the BBC provide an app for iPhone and iPad to read these videos outside UK. Nothing for Android though :( .

I was able to watch it from the US using the Hola plugin for chrome.
I'm not sure why watching TV has to be so difficult now. I would be
perfectly willing to give the BBC money to watch their shows, but I don't
have that option.
