Neat little documentary about scale models

[MrNatural]

I am forever searching for things that relate to scale modeling and came upon this neat little, uhhh, i guess you could call it a documentary about scale model airplanes and trying to get kids to understand the joy of the hobby. Check this out its pretty interesting even if you're not into aviation modeling. This is just the first part

Ah thats James May, a funny guy on Top Gear over here (UK).
A decent funny geeky guy with a real interest in how things work.
As a result of his Airfix interest the world record for the most number of scale model kits being built at the same time, has been broken a couple of times.

Saw other episodes, and the guy is crazy... in the nice way: longest circuit for toy cars, building a lego house, longest train circuit, a garden of plasticine flowers...
