Richard Hammond’s Crazy Contraptio­ns

8PM, CH4 ★★★★

-

No one could call Richard Hammond (pictured) lazy – he’s much too busy for that. If he was though, hosting Crazy

Contraptio­ns would be a dream job, as so much of it revolves around getting him out of household tasks. This week, three stars of TikTok take on three civil engineerin­g students to create a chain-reaction machine that will let him boil a kettle from the comfort of his lavatory. Shini Somara is on hand to explain the science behind the inventions, and Zach Umperovitc­h is the resident expert judge.
