    ...here's another C5 leading the charge. Sorry Adam - couldn't resist....

    Edit: what a pity Clive Sinclair isn't still with us - an inventor 'ahead of his times' (OK, that's a bit of an oxymoron) but with a massive effect on what came next (as is often the case).

    The Lancaster Bomber at 80 with David Jasontonight 7pm, Channel 4.

    It’s followed by the latest in a series called “Britain’s Forgotten Wars, with Tony Robinson, a series I hadn’t even realised has been on for a few weeks now, although I can never quite take to Mr Robinson, but that’s just me, can’t love ‘em all can you. May give it a whirl tonight though, it’s about Korea.
