I watched the LHC program. Not unexpectedly I found it disappointing. Maybe to someone who hadn't ever considered or read about 'Life, the Universe, and Everything' it might have been interesting - even enlightening; perhaps like me watching the preceding ABC program about parrots which I thought quite wonderful. Some of the photography in that program was, in my opinion, superb.
Which brings me back to the LHC exposé. Why, oh why, do programs such as these (it's not alone in this) rely on repeating images over and over again? Is it to mask the speakers? Is it to reduce the production costs? I'd much rather watch people discussing or arguing points of view - with images as required to reinforce the comments - than view some CGI, often unrealistic, which distracts and detracts from the subject being presented.
Crikey I'm grumpy this morning.
