In the first episode Richard Dawkins explains the basic mechanisms of natural selection, and tells the story of how Charles Darwin developed his theory.

He teaches a year 11 science class about evolution, which many of the students are reluctant to accept. He then takes them to the Jurassic Coast in Dorset to search for fossils, hoping that the students can see some of the evidence for themselves.

Dawkins also visits the place of his birth, Nairobi, where he interviews a prostitute who seems to have a genetic immunity to HIV, and talks to microbiologist Larry Gelmon. He goes on to predict that genetic immunity is a trait that will become more prevalent in the community over time.

  • @ZebbMassiv Hahahahaha!

  • That little girl that admitted to believing in her religion...Natural selection has it''s eye on her.

  • @sporeadict227 I find it sad that the human mind is capable of such delusional depths that even when it sees the facts infront of it, it is capable of twisting those facts to incorporate them into the previous thought pattern that the evidence contradicts.

    Religion has been nothing but a scourge on our species.
