Oh thank goodness! I was wondering what the documentary was called, searching for the name so I could watch it when it finally is finished.
Could some one tell me where i could view this online?
If any of the film ends up online, I'll certainly post a link to it. But the film is still in production so that'll be a while from now.
I gather they'll also be filming something about the Ant Course?
I do not watch much TV, Just read books, articles online and mod a few forums, but I might flip the tube on for this.
*off topic* Can i choose my post icon thingy? or make an account etc?
Should be a GREAT film!
Can't wait. Any ETA on when it will be shown? 2010?
