Science Comedy Smash
Science stands up and takes to the stage in this explosive line-up show Newton would approve of (Einstein is still thinking about it). We've fished the best talent out from behind the fume cupboard for your entertainment: here comedians experiment with science, and scientists experiment with comedy.
Cue the maniacal laughter and world domination.
