A great lecture on dark energy and the end of the universe by Lawrence Krauss, an excellent speaker IMO...
Reference podcasts, I enjoy those of slacker astronomy.

Prof. Martyn P.
He may not be on TV as much as the rest, but he is the nicest Prof I've met, and has the best hair ever!

Is he the one at the back with the white afro? Looks well qualified!
Arrrggghhhh Brian Cox.
Good call for Feynman... you forgot womanising

She's not a professor, 'merely' a Doctor, but she's certainly my current favourite TV academic:
The lovely Dr. Francesca Stavrakopoulou.
Mmmmm, I feel an overwhelming need to study the ancient Bible at Exeter University.Posted 1 year ago # -

Yes...but then my tv watching tends to revolve around my almost-3 year old daughter...so if it isn't on CBeebies then it isn't on!!!
