What About It
I love science, spoken as basically a layman. And this show is fine. It’s produced very well and always has a variety of topics on a given episode, some of more interest than others usually, some of them related to recent news items. And, yes, okay, I’ll say it, one of the pleasures of the show is all the fabulous British accents. But it doesn’t have much in the way of energy or charisma. It’s a perfectly harmless show, but not one I would recommend.
2 stars.
