Guys guys guys, I found the archive of the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures (it's not an achievement, they've not hidden them) - you can watch every single one since they started televising them in the 60s:
www.rigb.org/christmas-le...
I love watching them every year, now I can see them all!

I'm watching 'Smiley's People' (1982) and I'm struck by the confused vagueness of its representation of the Baltic states. I haven't read the book, which might be better, but the TV series seems to muddle up White Russians with Estonians, and is vague on the reasons Estonians might oppose the USSR
