I have loved his series on the universe. Absolutely mind blowing television that has at times made me feel quite strange about life etc. Mrs Rags can't even watch it because she says it makes her feel uneasy. I know what she means.

I love the way he explains things. For twenty minutes you are thinking "what is he going on about?" as he appears at various points around the globe and then in a couple of sentences it all seems so simple.
A very difficult thing to carry off.
And his band was/is truly shite.

Didn't know he had a band. He's an academic scientist at CERN in Geneva isn't he - in his spare time? I guess he plays in a band for fun same as many of us.

I haven't seen any of them yet but recorded the lot on Sky+.
(Does that warrant a ban on this site?)
When I retire (a month from today) I'll be catching up. ;D

I'm not sure I agree...
I enjoyed his WOT Solar System series, but his WOT Universe one so far leaves me a bit cold...too much posing, not enough science.
My "proper scientist" mates go even further and say it's the worst thing on telly...which I feel is going a little far.

Rover is right.
Should be female and preferably Alice Roberts. FACT.

I met the man who managed D:Ream a little while ago. He was very nice and despite him being in very poor health had me rolling around with laughter. Top fella.
