Maker TV from the inside. Watch a never shown in the US episode of Scrapheap/Junkyard, with commentary by the captain of The NERDS, the team from the USA. After the show, I will talk about how the show is made, and answer questions. As for the show, it was a special tribute to the work of the great British engineer, Isembard Kingdom Brunel, made to celebrate his 200th birthday.
