My Favourite Pastime Watching documentaries - especially the BBC Documentaries is my favourite pastime. I always watching BBC Science & Nature Documentaries on a certain website on Saturday evening. And the website is called ‘youtube’, actually. Then you may wonder, ‘How did you connect it? I suppose the ‘youtube’ is band in your area - China Mainland.’ Well, in fact, I am using a VPN currently. Although the VPN will effect the internet speed, it works. And it can stabilize the internet connection with other countries. Overall, in my experience, the VPN cost little and work stable. So, I highly recommend it to you, if you live in a same area with me. To get back to the point, the BBC Documentaries, especially the Science and Nature Documentaries are absolutely wonderful! And I was attracted by David Attenborough - a famous Presenter’s works. The Old man has presented over 30programs. His Documentaries ‘Life’ and ‘Planet Earth’ were absolutely fantastic! ‘Frozen Planet’ and ‘Kingdom of Plants’ were great as well! Let alone his ‘Africa’ , ’Life Story’ etc. Obviously, it will be deserve watching all of his works. So that, again, I highly recommend them to you.

Hello James,

Yes, I can remember David Attenborough and you are right his programmes are interesting and well presented. I am glad that you have found a way to see them and learn from them.

At the beginning you used the verb 'ban', this is like other one syllable verbs with the consonant vowel consonant pattern - you need to double the second consonant and then add -ed. (Similar verbs 'stop' & 'run'0

Hope this helps
