Joining them are comedians Katy Brand, Brian Blessed, Eric Idle, Dave Gorman and Andy Hamilton (to name a few) to consider what has been learnt since the first episode back in November 2009. Science royalty Alice Roberts, Neil De Grasse Tyson, Sue Black, Fay Dowker, David Speigelhalter, Richard Wiseman, Tony Ryan and Andrea Sella name their own big scientific discoveries, from the Higgs Boson, to gravitational waves, to our understanding of how humans evolved.
Plus the panel are joined by Reverend Richard Coles and the former Dean of Guildford The Very Reverend Victor Stock, to give their view from Clergy Corner. More tea and infinite particles vicar?!
