I think the OP meant it rather than "them".

TH is entertaining and informative.

Just watched Tim Hunkin's latest video, an excellent explanation of how pneumatic components & their systems work.

I can highly recommend it.

I didn't know Tim Hunkin was still making videos; I shall seek it out.

Tim Hunkin's TV series in the 1980s & early 1990s on "the Secret Life of… " telephones, photocopiers, radio etc. was very interesting and watchable, and I often used it as a teaching aid in Science lessons. He also did a series of scientific cartoon strips in one of the daily papers, and his eccentric machines are a wonder to behold. His "Under the Pier Show" on Southwold pier is great fun, and my teenage daughter loved it.
