  1. Excess Baggage: Alien environments, Chad, Jewish India

    Prof Brian Cox flew to the top of the atmosphere, dived to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, descended into a cave soaked in sulphuric acid and witnessed a total solar eclipse tells Sandi how visiting some of earth’s most extreme locations gave him an idea of other planets’ environments.

    Chief executive of Oxfam Dame Barbara Stocking talks to Sandi about her recent visit to Chad, and explains how lack of water is at the heart of the humanitarian crisis and that the role of women in organising wells offers some hope.

    Artist and writer Esther David is from a Indian Jewish community and tells Sandi whow they came to be there and how the two cultures have become intertwined.
