the program with Louis (our leader.. lol) will be repeated on BBC4 again..
the whole series will be repeated
with Louis as a kaleidoscope@ the Apollo..

and it will be shown once on BBC2..
the content on parallel worlds/time is fascinating

it is a really good series with re makes.rewrites. which were good...
the quatermass and andromeda remake , however, seen before and nuff said..whatever,
good to see Sci Fi Brit style holding up a mirror to our culture, and not shiny usa..
interesting talking heads...
food for thought and entertainment..and Mr Arthur.C... BrianAldiss...et al

(and 2 showings of britwrite /usa make of A.I on BBC3)

I really enjoyed the documentary 'The Martians and Us' (although I missed the first one). I have a thing for the post apocalyptic theme so it was good to here about some early literature on the topic.
