A
television series produced by
ITV Channel 4 which explained the inner workings of things in our modern
home and
office. The show was
created and
hosted by
Tim Hunkin, assisted by
Rex Garrod. Each
episode focused on
explaining the functional details of a particular
machine or
technology. Episodes include the
vacuum cleaner,
sewing machine,
central heating,
washing machine,
refrigerator,
television,
internal combustion engine,
telephone,
radio,
VCR,
fax machine, and the
elevator.
The show mixed a lot of educational information with wit and humor, and was great entertainment for all. I only wish there were more episodes, or that some channels in the US would run the show again.
Mistakes (thanks for the correction):
Demeter says CHannel 4 is an ITV station, not BBC
call says I hate to contradict Demeter, but Channel 4 is NOT an ITV station either. It's completely separate from both ITV and BBC.
