I'll have Brian Cox if no-one else wants him

Good idea!

BitOfFun · 10/03/2010 18:45

Definitely

Please please- we will be very good and not at all pervy old lady or anything, I will think of hard questions and everything!

lostinwales · 10/03/2010 20:02

Please, please, please. Don't even need to be a pervy old lady as he's older than me, woohoo. (I might make a good pervy youngish lady...)

(Starting to worry about questions already as I want to appear intelligent not like a drooly stalker)

Just adding my name to the "Please may we have Prof Cox" list. Please

SpawnChorus · 11/03/2010 09:00

Oh yes please MNHQ!

OtterInaSkoda · 11/03/2010 09:01

Could he give us a definitive reading list for dappy non-science types?

ItNeverRainsBut · 11/03/2010 09:01

Pleeeeeeeasssee get him in for a webchat

He's a very good role-model for science loving kids!

I bet he'd do it especially as he just finished Wonders & is back later in the year with a series called Universe

pleeeeeeaaaseeee!!!
