Sometimes it's fun just to kick back and watch TV. That doesn't mean you can't learn and have fun at the same time, though. Here are links to two shows done by the guys that do Top Gear about science. Watch as Jeremy Clarkson takes you through the history of the five inventions that shaped the world into what we know it as today, and view as Richard Hammond takes you into three 'invisible worlds.' Fans of Top Gear will realize that I forgot James May, but he does in fact have his own science series, Things you Need to Know, just like his co-hosts. However, as that show is only for mature students, it will not be linked.
