i have just watched the t.v programme brainiac with my young son age ten.it was shown as a repeat on sky 3 channel at 4.30pm, on the afternoon of a school easter holiday. i have to say i am shocked that this is being aired when young kids can easily access it. i understood it to be aimed at children when originally shown.the episode we watched was from vic reeves period hosting.i find the women involved presenting this show so cliched, and embarrassing.one particular example was 'how hard is your thing?'where a female with breasts extruding from a tight black leather cat suit asks the male the question and he offers up a ornament of a cast iron cockerel. you can imagine the double entendres with her saying to him show me how hard your cockerel and how hard is his c**k etc etc and in a drooling drawl' i love hard things!' and so on repeatedly. the woman who did it must have been desperate, and totally ignorant not to look a the bigger picture i.e generations of women who pioneer into all our futures doing really great and remarkable work being shown up by these amoebas! poor role models for young girls and boys. stop letting the side down dumbos! and teach our kids some real science instead of this repetitive idiotic nonsense.

Wicked show!
Good show, but with lots of half-naked women and some suggestive experiments.

Soft porn pretending to be science
Presenter parading in a bikini asking 'How hard is your thing?' while recording results using a 'hard ranker'. You might like your ten year old watching this sort of soft porn but I certainly wouldn't!
