This Guy must be on Speed

– C4, 9pm

GUY tries to cross the English channel on a human- powered airship. As you do.

His transport takes the form of a bicycle held aloft by a helium balloon the size of a bus, with the pedals driving two propellers. He puts the machine to the test in Bedfordshire’s historic Cardington Hangars, where some of the world’s biggest flying machines were created, and seeks some military advice on surviving crash landings.
