A work colleague from the US has asked me if I know of a video of how a sewing machine works that he had seen in the UK some time ago. He said it was a demo of how it works but its was demonstrated by people in a field with a load of with rope showing how it works. I didnt know what it was but thought it might be Brianiac but couldn't find it

This was three days ago now and no matter how much I want to forget it I can't, so now I want to make it the problem of the collective. Its bad enough that I'm stuck at home with a large amount of time to do stuff without the the things i need to do them, now I'm trawling for an answer to this.

any pointers guys

Cheers Pete

Was it a tv programme by the marvellous Tim Hunkin 'The Screat Life of... The Sewing Machine':
