I originally downloaded it last summer, and my neck of the woods wasn't terribly great. It's been updated since then, and I can see the chariot parked outside my cave. Worth looking at for some of the areas of the world highlighted in the Beeb's brilliant Planet Earth.

the strips of land that are blurred will be updated. And with any luck the whole of the UK should be clear soon.

"the Beeb's brilliant Planet Earth."
Hey Caractacus, you're not allowed to use the adjective brilliant attached to the Beeb. Havn't you been reading other threads on this forum?

Sorry, Mart, my Daily Mail V chip must have melted.
If the Beeb do anything well, it's wildlife photography. And there's stuff on that programme which I've never seen anywhere---so the brilliant comment stands.

I have to agree - anything coming ot of BBC Bristol and wildlife based is pure quality, nobody else gets close to being this good.
