Testimonials

Feedback on Brian Cox has been fantastic. There were 1200 people in the room and you could have heard a pin drop.

Brian was a massive pull factor in getting people along to the event and he didn't disappoint. Everyone I spoke to said he was fascinating. The hour flew by, could have quite happily watched another hour.

From the moment he arrived at Glasgow Science Centre he was utterly generous with his time and expertise. The audience was a very mixed group of people - including over 40 professors (which Brian loved) - and every last person was spellbound by his presentation. The last slide of his presentation generated a lot of discussion, and is in fact still being talked about by our Science team. As you can imagine everyone wanted to meet and talk to Brian and he could not have been more obliging and genuinely interested in meeting them. I do think he would have been happy to spend all night chatting had I not 'bullied' him into a taxi at 12.30am! Nothing was too much trouble - questions, autographs, photographs...
