Comedian Sophie Duker, science nerd Rick Edwards and quantum physicist Dr Michael Brooks dissect the science behind Netflix鈥檚 multi award-winning series Stranger Things. The Science(ish) gang take an entertaining deep dive into the science behind the sci-fi horror hit, picking apart the nanoscience from the nonsense. Secret government experiments, psychic powers and interdimensional monsters are all brought under the microscope for a reality check.
Using a combination of expert witnesses, guest contributors and archive clips, Rick is determined to prove to a sceptical Sophie and Dr Michael that the work of science fiction is actually based on plausible science fact. From seeing the person who believes they are the real-life Stranger Things character Eleven to uncovering a monster dog that paved the way for human organ transplants, the three will have to decide if the science of Stranger Things is legit or just science-ish.
