Right - here we go
"Isn't it wonderful that women have two breasts, not just one?" inventor Dr Elena Bodnar asked a press conference at Harvard University. "This means that when a woman wears my bra-mask, she can save not only her own life, but also the life of a nearby man of her choice"
"The brilliance of my idea is that it is very simple - it's a brassiere that can be turned instantly into a pair of protective face masks. To use it in an emergency, the wearer unsnaps the bra from under her shirt, breaks it in two, and puts one cup over her mouth. Because each cup has hooks on its side, the strap can be wrapped around the head and hooked to the cup. An experienced user can don the mask in mere seconds, and give the spare cup to someone else, to help them breathe. I first thought of the idea while treating victims of the Chernobyl disaster, when I was a medical student in the Ukraine, but there are thousands of other uses for the bra-mask, during natural disasters such as fires and dust storms, or during a terrorist attack, or a swine flu outbreak.The bra-mask is a lifesaver, and my only hope is that eventually all women will wear one" (Chicago Tribune 29/10/9)
This is where theclaud tells me she meant a different story, as I recover from my typing-induced RSI

The four parter, I think - the one about the history of mathematics, which brought in a lot of stuff about Middle Eastern and East European mathematicians.marinyork said:
I'm a sucker for these programmes on higher maths and astrophyisics, if they are well presented. I'm not sure why, because I can only just keep all the balls in the air for the duration of the programme. I like being left with the residual wonder.
