To tide you over on our late summer break, here's one of our favourite episodes from the archives, about one of the very best things about summer: lovely, fuzzy, friendly l'il wasps.

Climate change = more wasps. Is it  time we all stopped freaking out and started to love the little blighters?

Plus, Microsoft Excel has a plan for the nation's newts - and clean coal oxymoronicism from our orange friend over the pond.
