BBC4 at Nine. 'The Science of Bubbles'

Should satiate my geek yearnings for a while.

Oh, thanks for the tip, turned over now...

I was just amused by a scene in Holby City. Cuddly Mr Hope (Who was cuddly Nigel in Eastenders) was attending a wedding and bemoaning the fact that the hospital shop didn't have rice for him to throw, so he'd got couscous. I think I want couscous at our wedding!

I was planning on throwing fusilli. And grated parmesan.

Back to Science of Bubbles.

It was a fascinating program. Well worth watching on catch up.

Off to do some bubbleology with some champagne......

In the likely event of champagne being unavailable, I'll make do with a G&T

 

[Theseus]

Brilliant, who would have thought they were so useful and important to life

 

[ColinJ]

I recorded it but only watched the first 20 minutes or so because I was tired. I'll watch the rest this evening.

If you blow a bubble in a place of -25 degrees the bubble freezes. All the science you need to know.

I would say that -25 is more 'bloody freezing' than 'very cool'!
