Paradox
 
WOW ... this is really, really good !!!

Had me on the end of me seat ... nearly wet meself as couldn't leave it. Looking forward to next week's episode.

Not a new idea of seeing disasters in the future and trying to prevent them (which didn't happen this week) ... but great production.:mosher:

I have just watched the 1st episode on BBCi player - quite impressed too
The episode begins with the threat of a coronal mass ejection CME.
You can monitor sun activity here-
SpaceWeather.com -- News and information about meteor showers, solar flares, auroras, and near-Earth asteroids
Today's Space Weather

A CME has the potential to wipe out electricity generation, not just for a few hours, possibly for months.
Could you cope without electricity for months?
