I have seen that program a couple of times and it is very interesting. Heron of Alexandria was indeed a genius with mechanical devices. I think that the 'Robot' one on February 5th looks like a new one though. :)

Tks Horus, it was a new one for me. Will read the blurb on their site and maybe try and watch the thing also. Will make a note for the 5 Feb one too.
