Im watching his latest series, he just flew in a plane faster than the earths rotation so the sun started rising in the west after it had set.

What do we think of the Oldham professor............Good, bad, twatish, brilliant, a gobshite ?

Tries to use swearwords to ingratiate himself to today's yoof to disguise the fact that he's a nerd.
Clever lad though.

How many O levels did he get?

Wasting money. Does he really need to go up in a jet to prove what we already know? Next he'll be at the bottom of the Mariana Trench to show us how dark it is.

Or, and this may sound crazy, he's just a clever bloke and swears as most people do.

Some of the most intelligent people use the most sweat words. @gordondaviesmoustache has a real potty mouth on him.

He's an excellent physicist and a wonderful populiser of science.

His podcast 'The Infinite Minkey Cage' is excellent and YouTube also has some great lectures of his.

He and Jim al-Khalili are the best things to happen to popular science since Carl Sagan passed away.

Agreed. People moaning about the money the BBC spend on his programme dont seem to mind them throwing money at Eastenders and The Hairy Bikers. Bizarre
