Mary Norton explained gravity very well in her book The Borrowers when it was described as invisible sticky stuff.
Who needs scientists?

I watched and thought it was a really good documentary.
The subject matter is hugely complex, and I think he made a good stab at condensing it all into a 50 minute TV documentary.
And what does it matter if he's decent looking or not?
It's Horizon JK, not Hollyoaks...

I completely disagree. I thought it was very engaging and informative. He was a good host for the subject and was amusing when he was grasping for ways to explain the complex subject matter and failing a couple of times.
'if a gravity wave came through this room now it would...ummmmmm....no'
It has also inspired me to look into the subject further which i assume was the programme makers desire.

Why didn't it work? Brian Cox - ex D:Ream - is decent looking and a legitimate astro physicist who clearly cares about gravity and it should have been fascinating.
But he was incredibly annoying and unable to clarify the very complex subject.
I was looking forward to it but was seriously disappointed.
