Couldnt sleep last night so watched it at 3.45am.

Excellent program.

I dont think Metamatic would have come out quite the same or would exist if it wasn't for these guys.

Their influence is even greater than I imagined.Some of the sound effects heard on the first 2 Ultravox albums can be clearly heard here in stuff recorded in the late 50s early 60s.All done with retuned tape loops in most cases.

Also George Martin,did some early work with them.

Only question is why was there a clock on screen that always was set at 3 minutes to 8 & why was there always a guy with a beard
in the background in most scenes?.
This was never explained.

The de-contruction of the Dr Who theme was really interesting.
