This show was great to fall asleep to.
Thanks ants. Thants
Thanks Hanks. Thanks
Write that down in your copybook now
Brilliant series
The first series was so much better than this one though.
The… first?
I think you might be confused because in Britain, ‘seasons’ are called ‘series.’ So the first series of Look Around You was better. It was also totally different, so ‘series’ almost works both ways.
That makes a whole lot of sense now.
Look Around You
Thank you for being the first one to say the name of the show.
I’m the fucking lizard king
Available on BBC iPlayer in the UK. Very funny parody of educational TV shows. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p00bt6f2

If Christopher Walken and Vince Vaughn had a baby…
Is that Olivia Colman?
Yup! Next to Peter Serafinowicz. I think that’s Josie D’arby and Robert something (a comedy actor).
Robert Popper
If it’s funny and British, she’s in it.
Can you guess what it is? That’s right, calcium

What is water? It’s a difficult question to answer, because water is impossible to describe. One may say the same of birds.
What are birds? We just don’t know.
I love this show. I have weird memories of watching it late at night long ago.
Helvetica!
Dude I forgot all about this show, time to get a-downloadin’
Is this streaming anywhere? I miss it so.
There are a few partial episodes and clips on YouTube, but I’ve never been able to find the whole thing anywhere.
It’s on BBC iplayer at the mo
I don’t know the show, but I know that’s an original Commodore PET computer with arguably the WORST keyboard in mass market computing history.
He’s a close up of this “war crime” of an atrocity.
Note. Later versions of this computer came out with a more normal Qwerty keyboard.
Finally, a dedicated clubs button.

That’s pretty rough in a lot of ways, but man would that make ASCII box-drawing easier.
it really does! This was the case with the grandchild of the Commodore Pet, the very popular Commodore 64. Check out all the extra characters on the SIDES of the keys:
So many ASCII sprites baked right into the hardware and OS.
VIC20 too! That was my first, 64 next.
Is it bad that I want one of those? It is so weird!
So you’re not a fan of ortho keyboards?
I like it.
Wow, yeah, decisions were made… that is technically a keyboard.
That is pretty horrible. But I recognize a few things the C-64 inherited that makes it not quite a monster. The graphical shapes on the keys, and the Run/Stop (without the companion Restore key). No British pound key though, that’s surprising. What is horrible is the tape drive, I didn’t know how bad that was until I finally got a disk drive.
