The Tortoise Team first met Rob Hollingworth when he was topless, in a shed and dancing to Abba (that's how you get the best timelapses, apparently). Fortunately he's put his shirt back as we discuss the film that literally changed his life - Prof Brian Cox's 2009 Horizon episode Can We Make a Star On Earth? Along the way we talk about rocket launches, northern accents, climbing the Burj Khalifa and taking photos of James Blunt. Can We Make a Star on Earth? Can We Make A Podcast That Occasionally Stays on Topic? The jury is still out for both.
