James May’s Things You Need To Know Series 2

James May’s Things You Need to Know series is a new way of learning about science – everything from evolution and Einstein to engineering and chemistry – in fact all of the gaps in our knowledge. Driven by cutting edge yet surprisingly lo-fi animation and motion graphics, the show is an authoritative but straightforward guide to all the things we’ve been meaning to read up on but haven’t had the time. Big science ideas, served up in healthy bite-sized slices. The 6×30 minute series includes episodes on Einstein, Speed, The Brain, Chemistry, Evolution and Engineering.
