Also, although the second series has just finished, Race Across The World is huge fun - reality TV done properly, interesting and informative. Would I Lie To You is another favourite in my house, though we'll be waiting a long time for a new series.
In fact, at some point soon the TV channels are going to start running out of new material altogether. Hope they've got some big archives to dip into.
Bob Ross's "Joy of Painting" makes it look so easy! Not keen on his art, but he's so clever. (Don't tell me you've got another great talent, Ska'd!)
Nah, art has always been beyond me. I think that's why I enjoy Bob Ross so much - he really does make it look absurdly simple. "There are no mistakes, only happy accidents!" Mate, look at my pencil sketch of a banana and tell me how happy an accident it is.
