The Sky at Night - Season 23 - Eps 11: Observing the Sun
From the country, the skies are dark and the stars shine out brilliantly, but city-dwellers can never see the stars well. Fortunately the Sun can be studied telescopically, and at present it is at its most active. Patrick Moore talks to Peter Gill , an amateur astronomer, who carries out his observations of the Sun by using a small telescope from the window of his third-floor London flat.
