Broadcast from the UK's Centre for Computing History museum in the university city of Cambridge. We look at the past, and consider the future, of computing.

And researchers from Imperial College London show us medical technology that might allow us to upgrade our bodies. Phil Cox of Silicon Valley Bank gives his view on whether such medical technology is ripe for Silicon Valley investment. Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones.
