I haven't watched it all yet, but what I have watched is very interesting.

Are your, or your friends'/relatives', garages, lofts or sheds full of unused DIY gear, sewing/knitting machines or fabric and haberdashery stuff?

Lists of what is needed and a search engine to find your nearest collector (scroll to bottom for latter) are here:  http://www.twam.uk/donate-tools

I saw that Hope, it was quite good.  Didn't really go far enough imo but a decent enough programme nonetheless.

Ross Kemp is hosting a programme next Tuesday in which he "investigates the shadowy world of people-smuggling in the UK".  It's called ''Ross Kemp's Britain'' and on Sky 1 at 9pm.  I won't see that because I don't have Sky, a pity because it looks very interesting.  I might be able to catch it, or some of it, on Youtube or something.
