I missed it when it was on before so have just tried to put it in my personal planner, and it's not on next Mon at 7pm. According to the Sky Guide 7pm is a prog about spiders, and Nat Geo+1 is about Las Vegas.
Can't find anything about Foamhenge?

It was listed for next Monday but not now it seems. I've mailed the production company for info, they sent me a copy some weeks ago, although it covers some of the same ground as the Channel 5 programme it really is worth watching if only for the footage of the people of West Sumba moving a stone on rollers.

600 people to move a stone of perhaps 15tons (my estimate) a grand total of 100yds in a full day, and these people are experts. I'm more convinced than ever that the sarsens at Stonehenge were not pulled along on rollers.
