The 118118 Challenge - The Mr Science Show



118118 is a directory enquiries phone number in the UK that has recently expanded to "answer any question you put to us, no matter how big or small."

So we thought we might test them out with some of the unsolved questions from our show, and then some maths. In this show, the voice of 118118 will be played by the AT&T Text-to-Speech synthesiser.

Visit the blog here, and the mp3 here.
