Norwegian TV Station to Air Five Straight Hours of Competitive Knitting

Norwegian TV Station to Air Five Straight Hours of Competitive Knitting:
"Ah, Norway!
Land of my people!
A Norwegian television station has announced that they plan to broadcast the world knitting record for the fastest time from "sheep to actual finished sweater"—earmarking a full five contiguous hours for the purpose. That's five hours of shearing, spinning, and knitting (plus four hours of fleece-themed knitting pre-show). 
On TV.
I grew up eating a bastardized Norwegian dish that my mom called "milk mush," which is essentially just hot flour soup, so in terms of entertainment this sounds about right:"
