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. Oviraptors spread their feathered arms over their nests to keep their eggs warm, and some parents have been found still sitting on them. Others used fe...

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

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...
