Science Weekly: Why we should learn to love the meteorite

Geologist Ted Nield tells us why we should stop worrying and learn to love the meteorite . Ted's new book Incoming is out now. In our show and tell section, we dive into the secret world of leatherback turtles , discuss a chemist's worry that backstreet drug-makers are using his cutting-edge research to dangerous ends, and why women's tears dampen sexual desire in men . If you want to check out how tearful you are, here is a link to that film (The Champ, 1979) we mention at the end of the programme. We put our walking boots on and dodge the traffic as we take a tour of some of the most famous roads in medicine, a historical walk around London's Harley Street organised by the Royal College of Physicians .
