BBC Radio 4's "Front Row," one of their nightly arts show, discussed two
SHNH related topics.
- a story on filming science shows ("when is it a guess and when is it a
fake?")
- a story on architecture at London Zoo, with respect to their new Komodo
dragon / 1930s Penguin Pool facilities, raising questions about the long
term relations between zoos and architecture.
It's available on the BBC Web site:

(for how long? I don't know. Normally it's a week.)
