Helistat

0:50 "Helistat" Jeff Watson reports on the largest flying vessel ever made - a bizarre combination of an airship and a helicopter. In stunning hubris, it was actually built and tested at the same field where the Hindenburg crashed. And guess what? Yep, crashed and burned, tragically killing one test pilot. 6:10 "Spanish Power" Iain Watson takes us to Madrid, Spain to show us a power plant that generates power through nothing but hot air. Actually seems pretty clever. 11:56 "Scanning the human brain" Chris Ardell-Guiness examines the latest technology to examine the brain, the PET scan. 18:04 "Computer Bicycle" Carmel travels to Japan to report on a new kind of exercise bike. 20:35 "Latex Bandage" While these didn't really take off in medicine, they are quite popular in certain adult stores. 21:35 "The Best Stories of 1985" The team bring us a montage of their favourite stories from the first series of Beyond 2000. 43:45 Music medley montage by Murray Burns and Colin Bailey (Twilight).
