Royal Institution Christmas Lectures (neuroscience)

[LeftishBrit]

I don't know how many of you have access to this; but this week the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures are on the topic 'Meet Your Brain', given by Bristol University psychologist Bruce Hood. On BBC4 at 8 p.m.; first one today; next ones are tomorrow and Thursday. Was really impressed by today's one - watch them if you can!

1. Most folks in the USA, (primary DU subscribers, I'd bet) do NOT..

have access to BBC4 on tele or any other way than from internet feeds somehow.

Canadians might have this on cable TV somehow, particularly in Ottawa, ON Canada, or other major cities there, if their cable carries it. In the USA, unless it's on Current TV or C-Span3 or some other obscure channel, it's not carried. C--Span will carry Prime Minister's Question Time, but little else, on a regular basis.

If you can find us an on-line video feed, or something from the TED Talks series, or something on Youtube, I doubt we will see it. Which is a shame, I feel. There's a lot of stuff from the UK I wish we had access to. Your TV is much more sophisticated than ours most of the time.
