Welcome to our fortnightly round-up of all things engineering-related. We've pulled together a selection of news stories that have caught our eye in the last 14 days, and that you may have missed.     

In this episode, we discuss the re-launch of a hybrid airship, 3D printing of lithium batteries, how electric car sales are taking off in the UK and the news that MP's have asked the prime minister to consider putting manufacturing skills at the heart of the national curriculum. 

In fact the only missing element is our Friday fish and chips... maybe next week! Enjoy the podcast.
