And then there was Meccano last night. I didn't watch up, but will dig it out on iPlayer. Its a great series that is no doubt bringing about a resurgence in traditional construction toys in the UK. Cheers, Stephen Hi Andy – Spot on. And then there was Meccano last night. I didn’t watch up, but will dig it out on iPlayer.

His favourite TV programmes in the last 6 months have been: 1. James May - The Edge Of Space 2. James May's Toy Stories: Airfix 3. James May's Toy Stories: Plasticene In fact, looks like the whole of South West London has sold out of plasticene as a result of item 3 - my wife had a fruitless search for the stuff this afternoon. And yes, I will be tracking down some classic Airfix kits to build - namely a Saturn V rocket, a Panther tank - and dare I say it, a Heinkel He111 - gotta love that green house nose. Now, where did I leave my Humbrol paint pot? My nearly 4 year old son thinks James May is a god.
