Hello, happy Christmas. I hope you're enjoying the festive season. Here at the

Naked Scientists we are and we're also having a couple of weeks off to take a break

to tuck into some turkey and also it looks like to start various arguments

with numerous members of our families probably

so in place of our normal program for the next couple of weeks we've got previews of a

new series we're starting in the new year which will be called Ask the Naked Scientists.

Now this will be carrying on in parallel with our normal program that's not going to

change and it will be featuring Sue Marchant, Dave Ansel and me, Chris Smith.

It'll be on its own RSS feed, so you have to subscribe to

this separately if you want to carry on listening to it, and you can also download it from our website.

There are more details on the web, that's naked scientist.com

forward slash ask if you want to find out more about it.

In the meantime, enjoy your Christmas and New year very much.

We're back with the normal programming on the 6th of January, but thank you very much for listening to us we

greatly appreciate your support and once again have a wonderful Christmas.

Why do people go bold? Why baboons bums red? What's a light yes? Why do leaves go

brown in the autumn? Why do monkeys like bananas? Why do leaves go brown in the autumn?

Why are monkeys like bananas?

Why do some things go in the

animals understand you?

Don't know the answer?

Ask the naked scientists.
