Despite starring Richard Hammond, Richard Hammond’s Invisible Worlds (BBC One, Tuesday, 16 March, 9pm) looks rather good. Of course, this won’t be an exercise in Hammond watching invisible things and cooing about how good they feel… and it won’t feature people repeatedly falling in the water. No, this is about cameras being really effing cool.

Basically, your eyes are rubbish. You heard me. Mine are rubbish as well. That’s because there’s a whole load of brilliant stuff happening in the world and we can’t see it.

Hammond goes off to explore the world of detail hidden in the time your eye does a blink. For the record, that’s about 50 milliseconds worth of time. Worse still, our ailing species takes about 150 milliseconds to process what we see.

All manner of extraordinary things happen in that time that pass our lethargic brains.

So, using the latest high-speed cameras, Richard looks at a monitor and sees what we miss. Mercifully, it’s shared with us. Expect infrared and all manner of mad shit in future episodes.

This should be ace.
