A look back at our origins, plus the usual mix of numerical nous and statistical savvy.
A look back at our origins, plus the usual mix of numerical nous and statistical savvy.
It鈥檚 two decades since More or Less first beamed arithmetic into the unsuspecting ears of Radio 4 listeners. We revisit the show鈥檚 genesis with the original presenter and producer.
Why are there two different figures about our vaccination rate doing the rounds and how does the UK now compare internationally?
Plus listener questions on how the colour of your front door affects your house price, TVs on standby mode, and more. And we try to respond to a meteor storm of complaints about our earlier item asserting that Star Trek鈥檚 Mr Spock is in fact highly illogical.
