I was slightly annoyed that the programme on infinity was finitely long. It didn't really live up to the name, though was less disappointing than 'The Never-Ending Story'.
(I haven't watched it yet, but did they talk about Cantor and the continuum hypothesis? Zeno's paradoxes perhaps? I hope so, if not, bah disappointing much?)
I have to say, I don't really like the presenter, I'd have preferred Marcus Du Sautoy to have presented it. Also, this is moving at far too slow a pace and the points are being repeated with many superfluous examples. If anything, infinity is being portrayed as far more 'elusive' than it can be in practise, there's no mention of set theory and the work of Cantor upon rationalising and 'using' infinity. Annoying. Oh God, the mathematician claiming infinite mathematics is meaningless; come on, don't be so ****ing stupid, look at calculus and the use of infinitesimals, you utter douchebag.

There can be no 'biggest' number
Cardinalities of even numbers and natural numbers are the same (due to bijection)
Hilbert's 'hotel' paradox
