  • Is Britain the new place to get your wine?

    Is Britain the new place to get your wine?
    Jul 3 2026
    When you think of wine, you probably think of France, Bordeaux, Burgundy or Beaujolais. But we could soon be looking to Kent, Dorset and Hampshire instead, especially when it comes to sparkling wine. Since 2000 the total amount of land in England and Wales given over to vineyards has quadrupled in size and established wine makers, particularly from the Champagne region in France are taking notice and are keen to take advantage of this new market. In 2016, the Pommery group invested in farmland in Kent which they transformed into vineyards. When interviewed for the Daily Mail, about the 2022 harvest, Julien Lonneux from Pommery said : “This is a truly vintage crop, easily the best in a decade.” How much sparkling wine is currently produced in the UK? Who is taking an interest in English wine? Why is English wine getting better? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    What is Mukbang, the latest type of video going viral on social media?
    Jul 3 2026
    The mukbang phenomenon has been around for nearly 15 years, but only really took off on Youtube and then Tiktok in the last few years. A simple search on either of the platforms yields an endless list of clips, many of which have view counts in the millions. Mukbang involves people filming themselves while eating. The streamers are known as broadcast jockeys, or BJs for short, and they often eat copious amounts of food during their streams. We’re talking up to 10,000 calories in a single sitting! Sometimes viewers get to see them preparing the food first, or ordering it in. Where does mukbang come from ? What's the attraction of watching other people eat ? Is the mukbang trend dangerous ?

  • Can plants communicate with one another?

    Can plants communicate with one another?
    Jul 3 2026
    You might think that plants are silent and passive, but recent studies have shown that they can actually make sounds and send signals to each other, especially when they are stressed or under attack. Researchers at Tel Aviv University recently released their findings from a six-year experiment, which saw them record sounds emitted by certain plants. We’ve actually known for over 10 years now that plants emit vibrations, but it’s the first time that sounds have been detected, meaning it’s a groundbreaking find. Why don’t we hear plant noise then? Why would plants need to communicate with each other? What impact could this discovery have on agriculture? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
