Airdate: The Science of Doctor Who

It's geek heaven as Brian Cox joins Matt Smith for a Doctor Who science special.

2014-10-29_0016Professor Brian Cox joins Matt Smith for a one off special The Science of Doctor Who, on BBC Knowledge as part of Brian Cox week.

Brian takes the audience, with the help of celebrity guests, on a journey into the wonderful universe of the Doctor, in a specially recorded programme from the lecture theatre of the Royal Institution of Great Britain.

Brian reveals the science behind the spectacle and explains the physics that allows Doctor Who to travel through space and time. Fun, but filled with real science, it’s a special night for Doctor Who fans as well anyone with a thirst for understanding.

Brian is in the unique position of knowing the Doctor’s universe inside out as well as the reality behind the drama. When the TARDIS travels through time and space, Brian understands the physics involved. And when it comes to life on other planets, Brian knows the real science that could prove extra-terrestrial life might just really exist in our galaxy.
