Big Bang (Series 6) Episode 1

GARETH JONES and VIOLET BERLIN present CITV's most explosive show, and this series there are more big bangs than ever before. Putting the fizz into physics and blinding you with science, The Big Bang is packed full of amazing things to make at home, and cheeky tricks to play on your friends. Violet says: "I get exploded several times in the new series. As a cavewoman, then as a Victorian maid in 'The Big Idea' about the history of fire. Who said working in TV wasn't glamorous?!" Science boffins Ernest and Cynthia invite us to take a bet on the truth of crazy facts in 'The Big Fib', and we take a comical look back in time to some great inventors, with mini costume dramas, in 'The Big Idea'. This series you can also find out how to make exploding volcanoes complete with lava, and depth charges that go bang underwater. In the first show, you can make a pretty butterfly with moving wings; scare your parents and push pencils through a full bag of water (without spilling a drop), and blow up some aliens with a marshmallow firing space cannon. 'The Big Fib' is about the link between seaweed, sheep and ice cream, and 'The Big Idea' explains why electric light inventor, Thomas Edison, was an evil man with his fiendish plan to take over the world… Contributors Directors - RICHARD MAUDE, COLIN NOBBS Producer - JONATHAN SANDERSON Executive Producers - PATRICK...
