@Charic which channel? On National Geographic channel there's an episode of 'Big, Bigger, Biggest' advertised at 1 o'clock in the morning on the 8th called 'telescope', but I'm not sure it's that one as the program descriptions differ..

I saw the Telescope film on imdb when I was searching for it - looks really interesting...

However, I can't find it on my listings ?

Sorry about this - can anyone help? This is what I see when I check on the Sky TV website;

Yes, that's what I saw - the Big, Bigger, Biggest episode called Telescope (synopsis on IMDB) about the 'Large Binocular Telescope' from 2009.

This film called Telescope (IMDB) is the one @Charic is talking about, made in 2016 and talks about the James Webb.

I'll have to keep looking.

Thanks

Let's clear this up once and for all ?

The one-hour film made in 2016;

"A history of the telescope and a look at the James Webb telescope. A fascinating look at the universe through the eyes of scientists and telescopes since the beginning."

Thanks to @Charic for the tip-off.
