    Just watched this week's episode of Secrets of the Motorway on the Auto Shenanigans channel. Despite the title it is more about curiosities that can be found near a motorway with some nice drone footage.

    Recently I have been watching several investigations into the Challenger and Columbia Space Shuttle disasters and finding out some amazing stories about how both disasters could have been avoided. Hindsight is a wonderful thing I guess.

    If you haven't already seen it, 'Challenger: The Final Flight' on Netflix is a very good documentary on the subject.

    Men (generally) of a certain age may remember an American TV show called "The New Yankee Workshop". It featured a master carpenter called Norm Abram making beautiful items of furniture from scratch.

    The team behind it are gradually uploading all the old episodes from about 20 series (I think). I find it so relaxing and have been watching each one as it's been uploaded.

    Before he started any new project he would always repeat his safety warning that concluded with "....and remember this, there is no more important safety rule than to wear these, safety glasses".

    The Last of Us Part 1 video game as a movie
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRdviLnmeMQ

    First class story, computer animation and voice acting. And a lot cheaper than the actual video game or subscribing to Sky or NowTV for the tv show. Highly recommened. Handkerchiefs are advised.

    I tend to watch clips of songs in concert or else a full concert. I also love watching reaction videos and analysis to songs in concert. Better ones are where trained singers/professional musicians analyze a song eg,

    I subscribe to a lot of channels that have old UK ads/continuity from the 80s and 90s and anything else retro related especisally music wise. I also like Bald Foodie Guy's channel, which is great for anyone shopping on a budget.

    It is absolutely not what you mean, but this 80s remix of Toxic is one of my absolute favourite tracks.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eseWXiRIA-s

    And vastly underrated is this this 80s style cover of Wrecking Ball

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4FeYrCYwlk

    Not on YouTube, because the humourless Beatles copyright machine tried to have it erased from history, but from back when literal videos were in vogue (a retro thing itself now) this version of Penny Lane is amazing.

    https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x71wj1p

    All three are the versions that I most associate with the respective songs now.

    And as I am posting silly little stuff, this one minute scene from Patriot on Prime Video is one of the best monologues in television history. I have no idea how Kurtwood Smith managed it.

    Mind, "how about that Lakeman?" Like this:

    I'm watching the Kill Counts on the Dead Meat channel. Also the 'Ups and downs' on Trek Culture. They're currently doing Star Trek Picard, but they've done Prodigy, Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds as well.

    I do like the Food Wars videos on the Insider Food channel. They compare Fast Food outlets/Company Products around the world. They have done UK v USA, USA v India, USA v Japan, India v UK.

    Its amazing how much difference there is between countries not just between what is sold but also what they put in the food. A lot of the additives/colourings that are used in the USA are banned in UK/Europe.

    Oh my goodness I would love to watch PCBH again! I'm not very good with YouTube though, I don't really know how it works. Do you need to have an account or can you just go into it and watch what you want? Any advice or help would be really appreciated!

    You need a Google account (if you use Gmail, you have one) and depending on what device you intend watching YouTube on, you may be able to just open it and away you go without having to sign in. This would be the case if you are using an Android phone or tablet or an Android TV based device or the Chrome browser due to them already "knowing" your account details.

    You will see ads possibly before and during any videos you watch unless you pay for a premium subscription. You will also notice that you can buy some movies and TV series just like you can via the Google Play Store or the Apple Store.

    You'd just for a search for PCBH and you'd get a massive list of loads of them that probably various people have uploaded. Try to look for someone who has done a "playlist" of the episodes that are in order. You can then save their playlist to your library so that you can keep going back to it later.

    You don't need a account but you might want to for extra things like comments section or uploading your own content or paying to remove adverts.

    Thank you both @hyperstarsponge and @baldpaul147 for your replies, I will have a proper look later and check it out.

    Although the thought of committing myself to 692 episodes of PCBH is a bit daunting when I think about all the other programmes I am watching 🙂
