"How It's Made" is often interesting to watch, but the narration is often rubbish. The script sounds like it was originally written in French (the show is made in Canada) and then clumsily translated into English by someone who hasn't watched the film and doesn't understand engineering anyway.

Not as bad as the bridges programme which informs us that you make wrought iron by hammering cast iron

Even Fred Dibnah showed a glaring lack of engineering knowledge on some of his documentaries……But it can crop up in all sorts of areas. We have had club members and even outside speakers give talks where it seemed they had big gaps in their understanding or even knowledge of their profession. Went to a talk at the Midlands show last month where the professional knew less about his craft than I do.
However I have seen this at work. The best electronics designers used to be amateur radio guys not graduates though now neither know how a superhet works let alone design one.

Mix a Trident with a Ducati exhaust notes and enjoy a practical demonstration of the superheterodyne effect.
