... before he died last year - "Made in Britain" on tonight BBC 2 at 8:30

Caught it last night, what a man, he takes a bit of DIY to the ultimate, sorely missed.

Amazing bloke, and that steam engine what a beauty and rebuilt using steam powered machinery.

I loved his comment about the government/lottery (Something similar) giving money to men dancing in tights and how some of it should go towards preserving steam engines - excellent

It was great programme - unfortunately, when I put this thread up last night, it co-incided with the forum going weird and I don`t think it actually went on until after the programme!!
