Intersting stuff on how you see (and more importantly what you don't, but think you do).
All three episodes on iPlayer, first one here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod...n_Christmas_Lectures_2011_Whats_in_Your_Head/
Officially it's about how your brain works, but spends quite a bit talking about how your brain interprets what you see, and more importantly what you don't. Culminates in a "live" version on the count the passes/miss the gorilla experiment, but I found the stuff about what you don't see when changing what you're looking at (i.e. all the stuff in-between) most interesting - especially if you ride on the road! :shock:
