It would be very educational if our TV stations broadcast these programmes
Dear Editor,
The newspaper letters page is often swamped with the questions, where did we come from and what makes us human? The TV programme NOVA will provide us the most likely answer on Tuesday November 3rd. The three-part special running on PBS examines what the latest scientific research reveals about us and our hominid relatives.
It would be very educational if our local TV stations broadcast these programmes.
Why did leaps in human evolution take place? Part one of the series examines the factors that caused us to split from the other great apes and NOVA takes viewers “inside the skull” to show how our ancestors’ brains had begun to change from those of the apes.
The other programmes in the “Becoming Human” series are Part 2: “Birth of Humanity,” which profiles the earliest species of humans, and Part 3: “Last Human Standing,” which examines why, of various human species that once shared the planet, only our kind remains.
