Science is fun
I first heard this on the radio and am happy to now own it. Always loved it. Chaps and guests discussing various scientific subjects. I just want to correct them on one thing. In one episode they say that Mary Shelley's book "Frankenstein" is anti science. It is nothing of the sort. Do yourself a favour and watch John Green's analysis on Youtube.

I've heard far better
I think this is meant to be about science but there is very little science here. It seems more a vehicle for the presenters to chat about nonsense most of the time. Shame.

Would like them to delve a little deeper sometimes
Enjoyed these series, I couldn't really keep up on radio and it was relaxing to listen to.. Just wish they would have gone a little deeper into subjects instead of trying to cover loads of things in a show.. Overall though interesting and funny.
