Does anyone remember this documentary?

[PatSharpsMullet]

I remembered a documentary I watched years ago and would like to rewatch it but I can't remember it so hoping someone will be able to help me. My memory is terrible so probably not but maybe someone will have watched it and this'll jog their memory 😅

It was about mathematics and how it relates to everything around us. At the time I found it so interesting because it really expanded the meaning of the subject for me, beyond the boring school subject I'd struggled with at school and was the first time I'd appreciated what a big subject mathematics was.

I think the man presenting was famous but I can't remember who 😭 ..based on that tiny amount of info does anyone have any clue what it might be?

Johnny Ball did a series called Think of a Number

Dara O'briein has done a few programmes on maths/science.
Google may help more....and I think his name is spelt with an a. Not an e..

I don't know the documentary but Google Fibonacci.

Richard Feynman?

Maybe one of Simon Singh's ?

Could have been Jim Al-Khalili, he used to do good documentaries on BBC4 (on a 50p budget hah).

Or Marcus du Sautoy

Marcus du Sautoy? He did one called the Story of Maths for the BBC. I remember another one he did a few years later called Precision about the science of measurement.

Cross-post with @ErrolTheDragon!

Was it to do with the divine proportion/ratio. Supposedly the number/ratio that all nature is based on.

Not what you were looking for but on the same lines - he has podcasts etc too robeastaway.com/books/why-do-buses-come-in-threes
