Evolution

Available for over a year

Gerald Scarfe is back to guide you through the BBC archive - mutated into something completely different. Today's subject: Evolution. This episode tackles the history of our evolution and searches the archive for answers to some of the biggest questions ever posed on Radio 4. Why are we like we are? Can things only get better? What's the full title of the Origin of Species? What can Darwin, Lemarck, Bernard Lovell, Tony Blair, Brian the Snail, D:Ream, Mary Berry, and the prawn cracker tell us about evolution? Recycled Radio might have the answer. Producer: Polly Weston.
