24th October 2003	Time Watch documentary By Arno I browse this brilliant site, and at 9.45pm on Oct. 24 I get to the news page where it says that there is a documentary on at 9pm on BBC2 on Oct. 24. I check my watch, I check the date ... that's today !! I change to BBC2 and see the end-credits ......... I've valiantly managed to miss it. Reading about it though, perhaps for the best. Nevertheless I feel the need to throw something accross the livingroom :) To round off this day. I had just watched 'Zulu' again after some years, because I received it today via mail on DVD ... hence me browsing the site.
