BBC Open University S103 - 7. Making Waves (1997)

Just when you think all hope is lost - another wodge of intellectual lovely soup for your starving brain. The BBC truly showed what its puny budgets could do, when fed with the creativity of a sensitive and educated production team. This remarkable film, block seven of the Open University's Science Foundation course, documents our understanding (at the time) of electromagnetic waves and the wavy nature of... well, just about everything really. (Thinks: Ha! and there they were, thinking everything was all cosy and solid, liquid, gas in their safe little twittering phoney world. Well, think again, Buster. Your understanding of the world is about to be turned inside-out like a Moebius Strip gone boom). Hell yes it's weird, but you're gonna love it, because you and me, mate? We're interesting, that's what we are. I wish I could say to you, dearest viewer, that 'this is all my own work, I made it', but - I didn't, and 'tis not. It is the work of many brains far greater than mine own. With that in mind I must caution that it may be removed at any time without notice, so consume this slice of free knowledge while you can. Otherwise it's back to skateboarding dogs and then where will we be? By the way, if anyone needs subtitles I'm working on them. The auto-generated ones are ok, but get a bit squiffy when the audio is rough. I should have a decent text uploaded soon, but it takes ages of unpaid labour (for which I am unpaid) to bring them to you my lovely audience in all their varnished glory. As I'm sure many of you are aware, I take time to produce bloody good subtitles, rather better than some of the embarrassments I see on telly these days, which appear to be produced in a hurry by people who know nothing about the subject matter, and don't go to any effort to check. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm sure there are some jolly good subtitle writers out there and let's face it, all of our jobs are now threatened by auto-generators and robots just like we was warned in the 1930s (so we got no excuses really), but they're still not perfect, and if there's one thing I like, it's a nicely-put-together set of subtitles. Although let's face it, anything that's nicely put together is usually worth liking. At least on a superficial level. Which is why I think these instructional science programmes should be preserved for all mankind. You never know, someone might need them someday, right?
