shown tonight and may be on catch up

excellent 1987 (! I found it compulsive at the time) account of Crick and Watson's description of DNA

It was filmed intentionally in an outdated colour format ( wishy washy) to look faded

and Rosie Franklin who led the charge but didnt get the Nobel is portrayed as the harridan she was. 

I thought it had ( well I saw it 40 y ago) the  scene where Chargaff says that the bases as a result of the pH were in the enol form -  which  is a key chemical point. Chargaff spends the  rest of his  life saying he shold have been a nobel prize winner as they cdnt have done it  without that datum

but heigh ho worth a look
