Not!" en http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/tw2_not <p> If like me you experience a little frisson of excitement on seeing this headline in the BBC newsfeed: </p> <p> <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6235733.stm">Tomorrow's World to return to BBC</a> </p> <p> you'll probably also have been as disappointed as I was to read that they don't really mean it... </p> <blockquote><p> <em>The BBC is bringing back the Tomorrow's World brand to help audiences understand new technologies.</p> <p>Presenter Maggie Philbin will be offering in-depth analysis on technology stories on TV, radio and the web under the Tomorrow's World banner.</p> <p>Although the programme - which ran from 1965 to 2003 - will not return, elements such as the logo and title sequence will be revived.</em> </p></blockquote> <p> So, not the programme itself, but a "brand" for the odd five minute package halfway through the news! Such a pity, because personally I reckon the BBC have a big share of the responsibility for the shortage of people taking science subjects at school and university in recent years. </p> http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/tw2_not#comments Work and play Fri, 05 Jan 2007 23:31:50 +0000 Jock 337 at http://www.jockcoats.org.uk
