Honey Honey... How bees make the sweet stuff

Let It Grow Bees in a Pod with Rob Beckett

Rob Beckett chats to bee expert Professor Dave Goulson about how honey is made and what a bee swarm actually is, and comedian Sunil Patel provides the laughs.

David Attenborough is saving the planet, Brian May is saving badgers, now Comedian Rob Beckett is saving the bees. With help from comedy friends and proper bee experts. This week Rob chats to comedian Sunil Patel and bee expert, Professor of Biology Dave Goulson. We've made it all the way to Episode 4 without finding out what honey is. This week we rectify that with the bee of the week, the honey bee. Find out what a colony is, what a swarm is, and how you can get a bee in the post. Plus, do you really want to know how honey is made?
