Hosted by comedian Susan Morrison. Dr Lars Schewe (The University of Edinburgh) is applying maths to prevent power cuts – by switching off powerlines. He also wants to close roads to alleviate traffic jams and turn off pipes to improve gas and water supplies! Dr Lucy Hall (Heriot-Watt University and the Open University) explores ideas of monstrosity in World War II Britain to discover if we really are so different from the monsters we create.
