Hmm, not seen RI channel, thanks. Though, that's sort of what I thought it might be like - at best TED Ed for science. Interesting and useful for those who are interested in such stuff. However, I had a more lively, interactive thing in my mind. Discovery channel looking good if that's what we want.

This would have to be more interactive, linked with web,events etc, getting people involved, letting them have a say etc. That would be interesting! I was part of something looking like The People's Research Council, what about something like the People's Science Channel. Trouble is with the S word, it will put lots of people off, so, like Discovery, a better word needed. > > > Hilary > > > Hilary Sutcliffe > Director > MATTER > 7 Adam Street > London WC2H 6AA > Tel: +44 (0)208 693 0053 > Mob: 07799 625064 > Twitter: http://twitter.com/hilarysutcliffe > Email: [log in to unmask] > Blog: http://www.matterforall.org/blog/ > Website: www.matterforall.org > skype: hilary.sutcliffe > > > > > > On 30 Apr 2012, at 17:30, Duncan Dallas wrote: > > Almost every week there are new channels appearing on digital TV.
