    Thumbs up Human Universe

    Human Universe

    Another fabulous and thought provoking presentation series by Professor Brian Cox

    Five stunning Episodes
    1. "Apeman - Spaceman"
    2. "Why are we here?"
    3. "Are we alone?"
    4. "Where are we?"
    5. "What is our Future?"

    Catch it on iPlayer BBC2 or on DVD set to be released on 10 November 2014.

    Another DVD set on my shopping list

    I've been waiting for this series and as I expected, it's absolutely brilliant.

    Cox is great at communicating science. He absolutely loves it! The ideas and concepts are pretty advanced, but Cox and the BBC have done a great job of making them accessible.

    This series should be essential viewing for everybody!

    Cyberghost is good, they do a free version and a pay version. Do a search, they were doing a free 3 month trial of pay version.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this series. The final episode was fantastic.

    I got goose bumps when he was walking down the length of the Saturn 5 rocket, giving some of the amazing statistics about its power.

    Also, the closing words were brilliant.

    A really inspiring series!

    Just watched the final episode myself

    Breathtaking, stunning inspirational. IMO

    I'm looking out for the DVD to add to my collection.
    His enthusiasm and presentation makes me believe I understand the same as he does

    The series I have seen so far is ok, but too much padding out. Too many exotic locations, too many unrelated shots of the surroundings and too slow. Each show could have been over in 30 minutes.
