Brilliant, I'm filing in the table now...

For anyone who read this in time there is an interesting Horizon on tonight (Monday 21st May). Is is not about space but it is worth reading what I have put at the bottom.

7:10 pm BBC2 Monday 21st May.
Horizon. The Lost World of Lake Vostok. The story if scientists' attempts to discover whether a vast and mysterious lake deep beneath the Antartic ice could hold unique life forms.
Producer Jonathan Renouf; Series editor Bettina Lerner. It is a repeat and is in wide screen. Subtitles are avliable. The video plus code is 723709.

This may be interesting for anyone intresting in space since I've seen it before becuase the life of lake Vostok could give us an idea of whether there is life on Europa as the Galileo probe suggested and what it could be like.

On Tuesday 28th August there is a good film on that is partly space related. It is called 'Deep Impact'. It is on at 8:05pm-10:00pm on BBC1. It is a four star film (****).
Deep Impact ****

A huge comet is on collision course with Earth in director Mimi Leader's science-fiction disaster movie, which gains a certian amount of credibility by highlighting the human side of the impending catastrophe. The frightening scenario unfolds plausibly and is capped with a spectacular display or destruction. Edited for some of its language.
