Horizon on BBC

[jamespels]

I thought it was OK, tbh. Yes, a bit sensationalist, but nothing like Horizon was at its worst a couple of years ago where they spent 60% of the time repeating what they had just told you and trying to express everything in baby-speak!

I agree with Pibbles - the bit with the Greek bloke talking about "listening" to the sun was fascinating - I just wish they had said how they do this: do they watch for patterns of vibrations / waves or what?

For me, the worst bit was near they end where they were saying "we only have 50 years of data", then using evidence of the current / recent solar minimum to extrapolate that there wont be any sun-spots at all in another hundred years, or something - invalid use of stats if ever there was!

My 2p,

J.

Female? I'm pretty sure this was a male presenter, unless she was taking some serious hormone supplements
