Following my recent education in the ways of iPlayer I have actually used it a couple of times (despite my outbursts that if it only keeps things for a week it's pretty useless).
Tonight I saw yesterday's documentary on the restoration of Cutty Sark - and an excellent documentary it was too.
Those of you that enjoy engineering challenges, things of a maritime nature and history might also enjoy this.
Here's a link:

It was one of those rare occasions when there not only was one programme I wanted to watch but 2 on at the same time. As my wife wanted to watch the other one (Hustle) we watched that together ..... leaving Cutty Sark to be watched today.
