Anyone remember the show called "The Curiosity Show"? It started with some dodgy looking raincoat wearing type saying "HI IM BOB"... My sister and I are convinced he came from one of those pRON movie theaters that are open in the afternoon in new york.

Yes, I remember that It was deadly

The one thing I remember from it most was that tap that had no pipe connected to it but still there was water flowing from it, and they explained how it was done!

Then there was a similarly-themed and similarly-named but not-quite-so-good Curiocity. With the robot afair.

And it was on The Children's Channel, not Sky

It is what it's.

weemcd, did you figure it?

Regarding the 'suspended tap' pouring into a glass:
The water can only come from one place - the glass itself. There's a little pump which forces the water up a transparent tube into the tap's mouth. The water then comes back out of the tap on the outside of the transparent tube, thus hiding the tube.

It is what it's.
