Good and enjoyable.

Don't understand even half of it but good documentary. My head is spinning. :-)

It would have been better to cover some of the areas in a bit more detail in a third episode.

Excellent Series!
GeoPierpont13 June 2016
This series is extremely well produced in that it piques your interest and maintains curiosity throughout. I thought it would take far longer than the 2 hour lecture, given most tutorials on Quantum Physics are very dry, convoluted or overly dense.

The approach using many real world examples in astronomy, biology, card games, lab experiments provide a constant reminder of how closely many scientific fields are related. The humor is dealt in small measure to keep the conversation light enough for breathing room to further comprehension.

High recommend for even casual viewing and an introspective of the many mysteries of the Universe. Bravo!!!

Excellent presentation
Bernie44445 April 2024
As with popular science books, this presentation though accurate takes the time to boil the concepts down to a practical understanding. It is not quantum physics dumbed down or oversimplified; we all learn in different ways and I find this a good approach. Many times, I even read children's book introductions to a subject before going into the complexities needed to understand the subject.

I picked up some new concepts and had to stop the presentation to look up the individual people and concepts, new books added to the reading list.

I laughed at the spot where Professor Jim Al-Khalili described three books on hippy physics as I read all three. The reviews of those books reminded me that there are people out there that have no concept of Quantum Physics and still do not. I am not sure that they would think of "Secrets of Quantum Physics."

Watching this program changes how you see things around you. From the Matrix (1999) -Morpheus: This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

Interesting and Fun
csbump17 July 2019
There is a lot missing from this series.. It attempts to join theory, belief and I wish and I think together to make things be as real. It is fun and thought provoking and hopefully sometime in the future more answers will come. But there needs a lot more for this to come to be fact and not theory and beliefs before we get too far along.
