I think this was being shot when we were there in Oct. It was kinda funny, they were totally focused on Hiddy and Pushead and Flynn were standing a few feet away (not to mention gargamel, blobpus, RM...ect).

Hopefully it ends up on youtube

I've seen season 2 and am currently getting through season 1 ... the first epsidode had fantastic information, footage, and interviews regarding Ultraman and some of the best-known anime. If you've seen it, you probably saw the collection of kaiju in the Ultraman director's room (sorry, forgetting his name at the moment.) Amazing.

Very entertaining series, for sure. I didn't know there was a third season!

I was surprised and pleased to see the bit on secret base / bounty hunter as well.
For a mainstream (BBC) show, I find that Japanorama does well to include some of the less predictable stuff like this amongst all the "look at the weird japanese people" items about maid cafes and air sex (don't ask).
The recent segment about japanese truckers and the wild customisation on their trucks was great, and I first came across Seijun Suzuki films from an item on him in an earlier series. I'm still looking for a DVD of Crab Goalkeeper after seeing clips along with Calamari Wrestler.
No DVD release in the UK but the episodes should be available as torrents.
There's a short ultraman clip here as a taster: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/programme ... ndex.shtml

Rhino, if you could post them somewhere or even point to the torrents downloads that would be cool.

Yeah, it would be.

Jonathon Ross has an amazing collection, and an even more amazing display system....so I''m told.

Years ago I sold him a Henshin Cyborg set, didn't know it was him until I got his shipping info.
