Quite enjoyed the 80s pop quiz which was on right after the reassembler. Anyone else catch it?

It depresses me how much of my memory seems to be taken up with 80s pop music which I didn't even particularly like at the time.

That screwdriver is great, never realised it existed. Just ordered one.

Another great show. I like it because they haven't over done it with loads of episodes.

For a few minutes it made me think about starting a model railway.

Worrying bit is when he did the episode on the Telephone my immediate thought was I could do that in sub 30 secs (not 40 mins) complete with customised mods depending on Plan required (1a, 4 etc) and the typical engineers bodges.

It must just be me but i thought they were very poor shows compared to the stuff he normally puts out. He glosses over much of the detail (like how to get the recoil starter fitted to the mower for example..)
