i've enjoyed all of the BBC programmes on Apollo, etc., I must admit I've been pleasantly surprised that there's been so much on, and the BBC needs commending for it. |

Wow! I thought tonight's 'Moonshot' on ITV was excellent: very moving, very entertaining... |

I too thought it was quite good, but there were a lot of mistakes, and they didn't exactly portray the Apollo 11 crew as three men who got on together, which I don't think is completely true.'In the Shadow of the Moon' afterwards on Channel 4 was absolutely outstanding!  |

Waaaah, I've just had a sky engineer round because of a problem with my sky+ box. He said the only way to solve it was to give me a new one, no real problem there except it means I've lost all the moon landing related programes that have been on recently as well as a rather belting documentary about the Iranian Embassy Siege. Wouldn't mind so much but I hadn't got round to watching all of it yet. |

Hmm.... It's worth recalling that Buzz Aldrin 'endorsed' the program: what he 'thinks' about the portrayal of the crew is possibly more relevant than what you or I 'think' about it! |
