No never saw those, but always Adam Hart-Davis and his series on "Local

I remember in my last year of secondary school having a lass straight out of
teachers training college as our English teacher - she couldn't have been
more than about 3 years older than us. Be interesting to see if she comes to

Wellington NZ on the list?
