Teachers on TV
Hi Steve,
My husband started to watch Brian Cox while I was working in India and insisted I watch upon my return. I agree the format is simple and effective & presented with charisma sprinked with a little irony and humour. I also learn about chemistry/physics from Heston Blumenthal although I must admit it has done nothing to improve my cooking!
Cooking
Ah yes mustn’t forget the cooks…
Jamie Oliver
Hugh Fernley
Blast from the past …
Hi all, not sure if you watched Jonathan Ross last Friday but he featured an interview with Professor Brian Cox who was in fact a band member of D-Ream, of "Things Can Only Get Better" fame … What a shock! I didn’t see his solar system programme but he did come across very well during his chat with Rossie … 🙂
what about Mr.Fry
Hiya,
I know this one might not directly fit into your Best Teachers but Stephen Fry in my opinion is a ‘legend’ when it comes to knowing stuff about everything……he falls into the category of ‘People i want a pint with’.
Anyone agree? 🙂
Not sure
Hmmmm not sure about Mr Fry
I agree he is extremely intelligent and witty but I think he would waffle too much!
I’m going back a bit now but Johnny Ball was pretty good with Maths and Science!
not exactly TV but…
Flanders and Swann…..a song about the first and second laws of thermodynamics!
Priceless!
