Useless?is where comedy and science collide! In this comedy panel show we test the scientific knowledge and powers of deduction of our not-so-scientific comedians.In crazy, funny quiz rounds, we test the world of science from physics and biology to anthropology and history.
We also test how well we know the population of our own country? We conduct some unorthodox opinion polls and unearth some extraordinary data. For the panel, solving the tasks will mostly prove futile but the fun comes from the comedians’ wild answers and ridiculous reasoning!
It’s fun and laughter all round when we combine the wonders of science with the art of comedy.
