New from Jim Al-Khalili, i've not watched it yet so i don't know if it's any good.

I always like Jim Al-Khalili stuff, have seen episode 1 which was great, thanks for the reminder about Ep.2

The blackest material known to man in Ep.1, made from carbon nanotubes was freakishly amazing!

I need to re-watch the 2nd one as I fell asleep, not Jim Al-Khalili's fault, it was 3am

Actual new science documentary content from teh BBC? Whats going on? Must have been commissioned before they pulled the plug on this stuff either that or Jim's got connections in high places!

Reminded me of a quote from the Hitchikers Guilde to the Galaxy about Hotblack Desiato's spaceship: "its so black! Light just falls into it!"
