I watch Sky Arts on Freesat channel 143.  It's repeated in the week.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you @SpondonBassed, I’ll try and catch a repeat.

Is there a “player” or stream for the Sky Art channel?

You can download the freeview app and watch it. Now tv with the entertainment package will let you watch it on demand too.

Ive watched the first two episodes and I enjoyed the bits when they weren't focusing on Hooky and Melissa. Nothing against them but I found the small contributions from the other bass players more interesting, especially Mark King, Adam Clayton  Daryl Jones.

Watched all the second episode last night, I had never heard of the featured bass player, her style of playing did not interest me and heavily distorted bass tone does nothing for me, good to listen to the comments of the other bass players though.

Several bassists saying the only bass to have was a Precision. Funny that Mark King, Darryl Jones, Guy Pratt, and Gail Ann Dorsey weren't asked.

They didn’t say “to play”, though, did they?

I watched the lot yesterday. Really enjoyed it. There were appearances from

other bassists that weren’t listed (Adrian Younge, Mark King were just two…) Could’ve done with a couple more episodes, hopefully we’ll get another series because they really barely scratched the surface…

Something bass-related got covered in minimal depth ?  
not normal ….

The 2nd episode was definitely the least interesting of the three.

Glad I'm not the only one, I had to switch channels after 20 mins, nothing of interest, move on. I think it shows how the long standing program makers have lost touch. There's Scott Devine's YT channel, which at times is great and other a bit silly, but the guy can play and I learn from him (and Ian)  I think also media makers like Scott can create content how they want free from editorial control. YT is producing some really great presenters/tutors  Luv it.
