Next Episode of Look Around You is
not planed. TV Show was canceled.
Look around you. Look around you. Just look around you. What do you see? A tree. A weather-vane. A discarded lollipop-wrapper. A traffic shop. All of these things, and any other things you may care to mention, have one thing in common. Can you work out what it is? The first series of this British comedy show, filmed in 2002, was a send-up of the earnest programmes for schools made in the 1960s and 1970s. The second series (2005) is a friendlier spoof of the BBC's own slightly wacky 'Tomorrow's World' programme (1965-2002), and it gives a view from somewhere around 1982 of what life might be like in the early 21st century. The new series is again written by Robert Popper and Peter Serafinowicz and consists of six thirty-minute shows, a big improvement on the ten-minute format of the first series. The new episodes are all wonderfully daft... Remember to have your jotter and your copy book handy!
Episode 1 covers the basics of mathematics and numerology, including maths in social situations, the largest number, and brain-boosting chewing gum.
Episode 2 explores water, in all its forms.
Episode 3 looks at germs: what they are, how they behave and how they spread.
The series of short films parodying educational and science programmes from the 1970s and 1980s focuses on ghosts.
Episode 5 investigates the properties and behaviour of sulphur.
Episode 6 investigates music, featuring an experiment with a songwriting computer, the Harrington 200 and a music quiz for St Heathen's Grammar School.
Episode 7 finds out about the many facets of iron.
Episode 8 takes a look at the brain. How does it work? What does it look like pickled? What happens when you stick a metal probe in it?
Looks like something went completely wrong!
But don't worry - it can happen to the best of us,
- and it just happened to you.
