In what would turn out to be the first of many media interviews, Brian Cox hopped off the plane from Geneva and found himself on Jeremy Paxman’s sofa arguing the case for the Large Hadron Collider against the UK’s most senior scientist.

Tickets for his 2022 tour, Horizons – A 21st Century Space Odyssey are available now.
