If you enjoyed the show, I highly recommend the Science Channel series, "Dark Matters, Twisted but True," hosted by John Noble.

Noble gives quite a bit of the same creepy vibe, with much less of the fatherly comfort. It's the best modern version of "In Search of" with just as much of a dedication to corny recreations. Like "In Search of," some of the material is a stretch, such as linking Nikola Tesla to the 1909 Tunguska explosion in Siberia. But there's a lot of intriguing history, such as what happened to Einstein's brain, nuking the Van Allen Belt, and remote control humans.
Thanks for the recommendation... I never heard of this show.

One of the policemen accuses him of being a pervert, but he says, no, not at all, I'm simply just checking to see if she has soiled herself - Im a scientist!

Apparently this placates the police who allow him to continue... ???

I wonder if I could get away with the same thing when I fantasize that a woman on the bus has soiled herself? Probably not... Typical 'One rule for them, one rule for us' mentality...

At that point I realized how unrealistic and out of touch with reality the show was, bemoaned the fact that I will never get to check up a random womans skirt for soilage (infront of the police) and immediately stopped watching...





EDIT: As I fancied a fap, I had to research the scene, to check it wasn't just a fever dream - While I couldn't find a clip, here's what I did find

LOL!!!!!!
