Natalie Haynes & Kevin Fong: They've Made Us Episode Six

This week we look for inspiration in Ancient Greece and on the way to the Moon with special guests classicist and best selling author Natalie Haynes and doctor and host of 13 Minutes to the Moon, Prof Kevin Fong.
Hosted by Dr Helen Czerski and Robin Ince and presented in association with the Royal Institution.
In this show we want to know who inspired the people that inspire us. Each guest will invite the people who formed the ideas that have shaped their work, inspiration, creativity and life. Some may be heroes and, some may be villains, a few may be in-between. They may be alive. They may be dead. They might even be fictional.
