Last week, Alom was on Inside Science – the new Radio 4 science strand, hosted by Adam Rutherford – talking about practical work. He wasn’t wildly happy with the way the piece turned out, but apparently the public response to the item was terrific. Which, you know, could be taken either way.
Anyway, this week the show has Robin Millar from the University of York speaking on the same subject. Before we headed to the US, we stopped off in York and interviewed Robin and his colleague Mary Whitehouse for the Demo Documentary – we’re very happy with the way that interview turned out, Robin and Mary are real gurus of this stuff.
If you’re in the UK you can do the ‘listen again’ thing: Inside Science, Thursday 12th September 2013.
Hi,
I just wanted to let you know that the producers of Inside Science and the Radio 4 online team were kind enough to post the clip of Robin Millar on Inside Science as well as the debate between Alom Shaha and Jim Iley the previous week.
I was very impressed by the interest they showed and speed they were able to deal with my request to post the clips.
