BBC Life episode 4: Fish. Highlights: flying fish, the sarcastic fringehead, mudskippers, rock climbing gobies in Hawaii, and pretty much everything in this episode. Next up, episode 8: Creatures of the Deep.
UPDATE on episode 8: With a title like “Creatures of the Deep,” I thought it was going to focus on anglerfish and all the weird things that live in perpetual darkness. This episode is actual about marine invertebrates. Highlights: the fried egg jellyfish, Humboldt squid, cuttlefish (one of my faves), coral battles, etc.
Here’s the first part of the first episode of Chinese School, a five-episode BBC series that follows the lives of students in Xiuning, a town in Anhui Province. This is even more interesting than the aforementioned Supersizers. Today’s theme is BBC series.
Just discovered The Supersizers Go/Eat, a BBC series in which these two people spend a week eating food from a certain time period. This is the first part of the episode on the Regency period. Some of the humor is not funny and thus rather distracting. The food is interesting though. (via justhungry)
EDIT: This episode redeemed itself a bit with this gem: wow-wow sauce.
