Bang Goes the Theory (again!) - with Lynette Slight
Every now and again we go back to a subject we've discussed before, and this time we're revisiting the BBC popular science series Bang Goes the Theory with production executive Lynette Slight. And with good reason - it's an important series that filled a hole left by Tomorrow's World, and brought the BBC's approach to popular science firmly into the 21st century. Along the way we talk about the importance of the production side of making television; always crucial, often (unjustly) overlooked. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
