Morris follows the salacious adventures of this beauty queen with an IQ of 168 whose single-minded devotion to the man of her dreams leads her across the globe, into jail, and onto the front page. Joyce's labyrinthine crusade for love takes her through a surreal world of kidnapping, manacled Mormons, risqué photography, magic

You've got a few crackers there Copa. I'd love to see The War Game from 1965 again, a docu-drama about a nuclear attack in Britain. It was made by the BBC and banned for ages in the UK from being shown as it was deemed too shocking for general viewing. I saw it in the 80s sometime after the ban was lifted but can't remember too much about it. I watched Man on Wire at the weekend, very enjoyable too.

For anyone looking for sciencey type doccies, I've just finished watching The Atom and would highly recommend it. It's a 3 part BBC documentary presented by a very likeable guy called Prof. Jim Al-Khalili. It goes through the history of discovery and keeps the facts flying in a watchable style which makes the 50 minute shows seem like 15.

And speaking of BBC, right now I'm going to watch another BBC effort called What on Earth is wrong with gravity. Man, the BBC science dept just kicks ass :)
