What's the precise name of this phenomenon?

[John Marchant]

Do I get some kind of Blue Peter badge for making the same diagnosis as Graeme?

 

[Gunleik Groven]

I'd have loved to award you that, but I am afraid I cannot provide access to many restricted areas...

I like the idea, though...

Which is more prestigious - an Oscar or a Blue Peter Badge?

Blue Peter Badge by far.

 

[Graeme Nattress]

That's what I thoughts, Jay. I guess that means we need to get the RED team on Blue Peter showing off the camera to the viewers at home. Maybe we can do a "make" with the viewers - show them how to make an Epic at home using plastic detergent bottles, a cardboard box, sticky backed plastic and double sided sticky tape?

I'm saving fairy liquid bottles and foil milk bottle caps in anticipation

You mean its not? Colour me disappointed! When jim said it was a nuclear reactor in a matchbox I got my hopes up!

 

[Graeme Nattress]

Well, if you can make a Blake's 7 Liberator Teleport Bracelet from a plastic bottle, I'm sure you an make a nuclear reactor from sticky backed plastic. I seem to remember Magpie showing you how to make a diamond for your girlfriend with nothing more than a lump of coal and a portable nuclear reactor!

Approximately how many diamonds can we make inside an Epic before we have to change that titanium mount on the front? Doesn't seem like we would get very big diamonds out of there... Given the throat size past the mount, and accounting for the compression ratio of coal to diamond, I think 1/4 carat would be pushing it.

 

[Graeme Nattress]

BTW if anyone actually remembers watching that episode of Magpie, I'd love to hear your recollections of it as it was such a bizarre episode...

Graeme

 

[Shane Betts]

Yup. That's one thing I've been wondering. There are definite codec related issues here, too...

You like to see two DPXs?

One RED. one "other"

Love to. I want a badge too.
