  • We've been a little quiet on the channel recently, so thought we should give you a quick update on what we've been up to, and when the new season of Curator's Corner starts. BTW it's next week
    CONTENT WARNING:
    This video contains the promise of future Finkel, and some viewers may experience uncommon levels of excitement. Viewer discretion advised.
    This video contains Rudolph levels of red nose. It was absolutely Baltic in London today. Next time we'll shoot indoors.
    00:12 What have we been up to all this time?
    00:46 New season of Curator's Corner
    00:50 Curator's Corner Season 8 Episode run down
    01:40 Will Irving Finkel be back?

    If you're late to this video, the Curator's Corner Season 8 has officially started. First episode: ruclips.net/video/ywD5kngMuYM/видео.html

      That's "Dr" Finkel to you. 😁
      To be honest, I thought that was probably the case but didn't know for sure, so I checked - he got his PhD either at Birmingham or Chicago

    It's a wrinkle without Finkle. Love him. By the way, don't worry about algorithms. What you do is fairly niche, but also broad topically. It takes a pretty worldly mind (or at least curious) to consider watching every episode. I had no idea that it had been 8 years, so I'll need to check out the home page for missed episodes. I'm with you all the way.

      I’m sorry to be the one to break this to you, Theo. But you seem to have become trapped in some kind of temporal anomaly and appear to be under the impression that it is 1967. Please do not be alarmed by this, it happens to the best of us. I once spent several days in the early nineties convinced that I was a medieval Knight. It was only after a disastrous evening at the Ivy restaurant with Terry Pratchett, which I won’t go into (but suffice to say he never looked a breadstick in the same way again) that I was brought back to my senses and came to conclusion that sometimes people have different haircuts from me. All the best to you in this difficult time.
