Episode 255: Forensic Cases and Rugby Phases

We love a good science and sport cross-over. In this episode, Olly and Georgia chat to forensic scientist, Craig Gardner about his dual passion for science and rugby union refereeing. What does it take to solve a crime with science? How do you analyse the evidence and importantly, how do you know you’re right? Craig has all the answers for us. Plus, we talk about Craig’s other passion; rugby union refereeing. We learn what it’s like to referee rugby tournaments around the country and how a scientific mindset can help you in high-pressure situations.
