Agreed, worthwhile watching.

However ignorance is often displayed through the "that looks about right" method of testing, utilised from the beginning many experiments, rather than doing some simple calculations to find a starting point.

Understandable though, given that busting "myths" with a pencil and paper hardly makes for interesting TV to the average viewer!.
