Is it just a talk to camera?

This is NO blurry Zoom call in someone’s front room!

The show is streamed directly from our amazing studio with high quality video and audio to give you a crystal clear experience!

We mix amazing facts with EIGHT brilliant LIVE DEMOS that Tom performs on himself during the show. These go along side fascinating video footage of some of the tests Tom has been through just for the fun of it in hospitals across the UK

Highlights include Tom:

  • Scanning the heart and blood vessels in his neck with an ultrasound
  • Taking a photo of the inside of his eye!
  • Recording an ECG from his heart
  • You also get to see what happened when Tom had a camera put up his nose and into his lungs with a bronchoscopy!

Is it any good?

The show has been performed live at events and venues such as The Big Bang Fair, The Royal Institute (xmas lectures venue!) and the UK Skills Show so it comes highly recommended. 

Teachers and students who have watched the show have said:

“My class loved it and said you’re very funny!”

“That was brilliant!” “That was amazing!

One parent, whose daughter watched the show at her school, asked what the school had done to her as they had never seen her so enthused about careers and her school work! 

The logistics

The show is 45-55 minutes long and can fit into most lessons. 

The show will start a few minutes after the advertised start time to give you a chance to get students into classrooms an settled down. 

You will be sent a private link to the show that can be used across multiple classrooms in your school.

We have a test run a week before so you can test it out. 

The show is perfect for years 9 – 13, but we are happy to perform it to any year group you wish. The content is accessible to all year groups.

A LIVE STREAM show is £295 + VAT (£354 incl VAT).

A PRE-RECORDED show is £195 + VAT (£234 incl VAT). 

Both versions can be shared with as many classrooms as you wish… meaning a whole year group can tune in, even if they are at home self isolating.

You can provisionally book a LIVE STREAM date and time using the form below.

We’ll confirm if that time and date are all good for us the same day.

For Live Streams do allow multiple schools to book the same time slots, so your show may be shared with other schools.

You get access to the pre-recorded show for a whole week.

We’ll invoice the school directly and send you all the info you need on getting the show up and running. 

We inspire the next generation of medics and scientists.
