Robyn Williams – The role of science in creating Australia’s future

(NOTE the date change, Robyn is not available on the last Thursday of the month).

Robyn Williams is the host of Radio National’s Science Show which will shortly broadcast its 2,000th episode.  Originally educated in England where he admits to spending as much time acting as studying, he made guest appearances in The Goodies, Monty Python’s Flying Circus and Doctor Who before turning to increasing everyone’s understanding and appreciation of science.  He chaired Australia’s much lamented Commission for the Future and was named a Living National Treasure in 1987.
