Right, that RealClimate website Grufty Jim mentioned is chock full of full of goodies, including pretty clear answers to the questions I had after seeing that documentary.

In brief - with regards to the graph correlating sunspot activity with temperature, and the heating of the lower atmosphere rather than the troposphere, these do seem to be complete bollocks:
