Chris Lintott’s Universe

Two great shows

Posted by chrislintott in Sky at Night

I’m so looking forward to the next couple of months of working on Sky at Night. We spent the weekend putting the finishing touches to our Mars special, to go out next weekend. This is 40 minutes long on BBC2, and a full hour on BBC4 and well worth it! It contains all of the interviews from my California trip last year, and a long chat with the creator of Spirit and Opportunity, Steve Squyres.

Mon 5th Feb - 00:05 (late Sunday night) on BBC2
Mon 5th Feb - 19:00 Extended edition on BBC4

We also spent a lot of time writing the script for the 50th anniversary show, to be broadcast in April. Those of who who watch probably realise we don’t often have a script, but this is going to be something rather special…I can’t (and won’t) say too much now, but I’m sure you’ll be surprised. Watch this space for more in the meantime.
