Part of Connected Histories of the BBC, 100 Voices reveals the inside story of the BBC and its relationship with the wider world since its inception in 1922. The project, led by the University of Sussex, aims to make accessible the vast collection of interviews the BBC has conducted over the years with its own staff: from senior managers to popular on-screen personalities, pioneering editors of political programmes and influential producers. Material available so far has been curated into several themes including Pioneering Women, People, Nation, Empire, Radio Reinvented, The Birth of TV, Elections and BBC Memories.

A web series hosted by astrophysics professor Matthew O’Dowd which explores abstract concepts in physics and astronomy using a light touch approach. Each episode runs between six and 15 minutes and can be accessed via the Space Time YouTube channel. In Zero-Point Energy Demystified, for example, O’Dowd explains what this type of energy can and can’t do; in Understanding the Uncertainty Principle with Quantum Fourier he describes how "intuitive, large-scale phenomena can give us incredible insights into the extremely unintuitive world of quantum mechanics”.
