Heads up for UK members (and anyone else who can receive BBC2)

BBC2, 9.00pm tonight Dan Cruikshank presents The Lost World Of Friese-Green. Similar to his previous programmes on Mitchell and Kenyon, this shows the work of Claude Friese-Green who, in 1924, travelled in his car (a Vauxhell D Tourer) from Land's End to John o'Groats filming the journey as he went. What makes this interesting is he used a colour film system of his own invention.
