Stewart Henderson presents another sparkling series of Questions Questions - the programme which offers answers to those intriguing questions of everyday life, inspired by current events and popular culture. Each programme is compiled directly from the well-informed and inquisitive Radio 4 audience, who bring their unrivalled collective brain to bear on these puzzlers every week. In the programme this week, Stewart begins by finding out why tea and coffee pots are different shapes. He sets out on a mission to discover what the Neolithic structures called 'quoits' reveal, grabs a magnifying glass to examine the history of the flea circus and has a good time sampling the answer to the conundrum, what is a wingwom? Producer: Kate Taylor A Whistledown Production for BBC Radio 4.
