Looks interesting:

Can We Make a Star on Earth? (PG)
7:30pm - 8:30pm (60 minutes)
SBS TWO NSW
Can the energy source that powers the sun solve the threat of climate change? Professor Brian Cox takes a global journey in search of the energy source of the future. Called nuclear fusion, it is the process that fuels the sun and every other star in the universe. Yet despite over five decades of effort, scientists have been unable to get even a single watt of fusion electricity onto the grid.

I really like this show, he is a good presenter too, make it interesting. I believe the laser method of fusion has had a major update since this programme too.

Now I know that I've seen him before. What a fantastic presenter - calm, well spoken and authoritative. No Discoveryesque drama rubbish.

Hmmm, nothing new under the Sun (pun intended). I'm not try to sound cocky, but fusion and Tokamak is around for more than 30 years.
Now, how about a ZPF generator, and a Casimir (effect) gravity drive?
Call me a crackpot, but I dream of those before I kick the bucket.
