Actually, I'm finding 'new' (to me anyway) episodes on the Science
Channel. I hadn't realised I'd missed shows in the time period between
frying my BUD for the last time and getting the small dish installed. But
I'd not seen "Wheelie Cars" nor "Bomb Disposal" before.

For you few Brits still with us -- is the Robin Reliant one of those
dreadful three-wheel "invalid cars" designed to keep the disabled from
driving the real thing? Or is it just a rather dredfull looking covered
motorcycle?

I thought both 'bomb disposal' systems equaly unlikely as was a bit
surprised at how well the ladder contraption actually worked.

Of course, as an old Dangermouse fan, I have to say one of my favorite
recent re-runs was the monowheels. Having a bodger named "Penfold" gerbil
in the wheel was just too right.
