    Insightful, wholesome, easy watching and deserves a 2nd burst
    Its niche yes, okay we've all acknowledged that; but it deserves to be given a 2nd shot for those who like it. If people can have a show about anything these days as long as a few thousand will watch it why not keep something that consistently does well have a 2nd series!.

    Man Lab Toy Stories The re-assembler

    THERE IS AN AUDIENCE FOR THIS BBC or Amazon please make it

    Thank you

    Ps: James Mays commentary and production value sealed it and having a show without him is probably not the best move
