Sorry - another Jodrell Bank photo - I need to take some more this weekend.
An unadvertised joy on the BBC has been Kate Humble's trip around The Middle East following the old Frankincense Trail. Her visit to a Christian Church in Egypt was marked by the joy that her gift of Frankincense brought to one of the monks who said that they were rarely able to get hold of the genuine article. Kate's trail started in Oman where she bought a sack or two of the stuff but she has been handing it out like toffee to various high-ups throughout the region. She will arrive at the end of the series in Jordan, with a matchbox of the stuff. And we mustn't forget the first programme had her accompanying a huge herd of Camels across the desert while carrying a rifle which seems to have got a few of our more libertarian friends a bit hot-under-the-collar.
