What Are Science and Technology Doing to Assist Our Fashion and Textile Industries?
Description
Carpet designed specifically to assist the elderly, garments created to repel both fire and knives, highly desirable golden fleece that's impervious to decay, environmentally sound fiberglass made using local natural fibers… These are just a few of the items host John Watt gamely examines during this episode-and in doing so manages to get himself fleeced, burned, and stabbed. A part of Ever Wondered? (Series 1).
