George Clarke's Amazing Spaces: Hand-Built Observatory Special

Series 1, episode 0

Special edition following George Clarke and master craftsman Will Hardie as they create a hand-built observatory in honour of George's stargazing late father. They take inspiration from an 1830s camera obscura, a 1950s observatory, a futuristic planetarium and a box of fruit as they plan a remarkable design that merges a Victorian astronomer's library with a spaceship body. But creating a rotating roof, a chart table that rises from the floor and a collapsible telescope pushes their skills almost to breaking point
