Good, but like virtually all modern documentaries it always has to have the irritating 3-5 minute prologue where upcoming things in the programme are shown! About the only documentaries that don't do this are the David Attenborough series! In. the Great Days, when Patrick Moore was running it, he would just get straight on with it! Also, why does the programme sometimes take "a well-earned break"? When Patrick Moore was in charge this would never happen as it was always on every month! However, at least, nowadays, it is usually on at the same time of 10pm, and not excessively late, eg, around midnight, or even later on! This was a real problem when I. was a boy, and I was not allowed to stay up for it! Also, we didn't have a video recorder in those days!
