BBC Radio 4: In our Time podcasts


In our Time is a 45 minute radio programme hosted by Melvyn Bragg, he is not a scientist and it shows. The discussions are nonetheless very interesting and in the cases below are directly relevant to the A2 Geology course.

The Ediacara and Cambrian programmes follow on directly & consolidate our recent work in class (the time line Geofantasmagram).
