Is there perchance a thread on BBC's Climbing Great Buildings here? I couldn't find anything via the search function and have been a little offline recently.

If not, have youse been watching?

Erm, isnt it about someone climbing the stairs inside a chuch steeple/random tower and gabbling on about it? Well thats what I thought after watching 1 min of it then plip....

nope. lots of jugging on fixed rope action. its a bloody good series I especially liked st pauls when he dropped down from the dome. It gave me a slight vertigo attack which was odd

I saw this on TV the other night and turned over, is it worth a watch then?

The "climbing" part in the title is a little tenuous.
They never actually climb the buildings, just jug up them - which is a shame as some of those castles could be quite interesting projects.

Whether you'd find it interesting depends on your opinion of architecture really. Lucy Creamer does quite a good job of sounding interested...

I work for Architects so technically I should find it interesting, the reality may be another matter.

I'd watch it if they had Joe Picalli enthusing about medieval building techniques whilst abseiling down Britain's finest cathedrals.

Or maybe Pat King ad libbing an architectural analysis/critique of The Houses of Parliament with Lloyd Grossman hanging off his harness.

Maybe they could scale Lloyg Grossmans ego, with the fat cnut from MasterChef wearing a Whilans harness...
