Proper engineer's tv
I was watching an episode of Mythbusters where they were testing the strength of CDs to destruction and I was reminded of a show I used to watch as a teenager; Tim Hunkin's Secret Life of Machines. He used to explain how everyday appliances worked but in a very entertaining way; usually by sawing them in half. I taped them all to VHS, ready to one day digitize them, but it looks like someone's done that for me. I've watched the first series already - in the final episode he set fire to a tower of working televisions. I've always said it should be mandatory to show it in schools.
