Dinosaur chicken nuggets with Jingmai O’Connor

October 12, 2026

Loads of dinosaurs had wings, but not many of them could fly. There’s a dinosaur in your garden right now, probably the one that keeps stealing your chips, because a seagull is a dinosaur, and so is every robin, pigeon and chicken. Feathers turn up again and again across the dinosaur family tree, and most of them had nothing to do with flying.

October 05, 2026

A dinosaur’s tail could be a third of the whole animal, about as heavy to lug around as a concrete block, and for well over a century people drew dinosaurs dragging theirs along the ground.

The tail-dragging monsters in old paintings and old films were what scientists thought at the time, and that’s fine. Being wrong an...

Life in a super greenhouse with Kirsty Edgar

September 28, 2026

There were deserts, volcanoes and jungles, and there were forests at the North and South Poles, because for most of that time there was no permanent ice anywhere on the planet. Britain was subtropical to tropical. If you were packing for a trip, you would want a raincoat and an autumn jumper, not a snowsuit. This week’s word is super greenhouse. A greenhouse lets the sun’s heat in through the gl...
