Professor Brian Cox demonstrates why atoms are empty

Did you watch "A Night With The Stars" on BBC2 last night?

Professor Brian Cox lectured a celebrity audience about some of the most challenging concepts in physics from the lecture theatre of the Royal Institution of Great Britain.

Here's a clip from the show:
The comedian Simon Pegg and physicist Jim Al-Khalili help him explain standing waves in a demonstration to show why atoms are so large and empty.




It was a brilliant show! If you missed it, be sure to catch in on iPlayer.

Downton Abbey - Series 2

The fabulous period drama, Downton Abbey, is back with a new series, and it's superb!

The first series ended with Britain declaring war on Germany, and this series is about how they are all involved (either directly or indirectly) with fighting the Great War.

I won't give too much away in case you are planning to watch it on iPlayer or for those waiting to see it in other countries.

If you did watch it, please leave a comment. Did you think it was a good start to the second series?
