It's described as, "A fascinating look at the great engineering leaps that built the London Underground, the biggest metro system in the world." The picture used is certainly up-to-date: http://www.channel5.com/shows/big-bi...on-underground It's not possible to tell from the blurb about this programme but I have a sneaking suspicion that is actually a Discovery channel show. It does have some recent footage if it is the programme I think it is. I'll say no more to avoid spoiling it for others. Yes, that's what I suspected. Channel 5 doesn't make its own programmes, and this isn't the sort of thing it's likely to commission under Desmond's ownership, so a second-hand Discovery programme seems the likely origin. Anyway, I've not seen it before, so will watch it and hope for the best. |
