Back in December 2014 I was walking into my Nuclear Physics lecture, Prof. Paddy Regan was just wiping the whiteboard down from the previous lecture, just before he left he quickly mentioned that a BBC Radio 4 show was going to be hosted at the university and they needed a physics student to take part and to email him if anyone is interested.
Following this I emailed him and he passed on the number of the producer of the show David Tyler, I rang him that evening and he ran through the show and how it will be conducted. David then asked if I’m good at quizzes? To which I replied “My general knowledge is pretty good…”, to which David replied “Ok let’s take a quiz”, I was a bit shocked, “Like right now?” and so David asked me a multitude of general knowledge questions, to my surprise I had answered many of them correctly. I was told that I would receive a reply in a few days’ time after he had quizzed other students. Sure enough I received a call in a few days and was told I would be on the show and suddenly the realisation set in.
