One of her [Kim Shillinglaw’s] proudest moments came recently when Chemistry: A Volatile History, a BBC4 show fronted by Jim Al-Khalili, a science professor, pulled a six-figure audience and outperformed every other show outside of the terrestrial channels, even beating an ITV2 programme about Katie Price." 
The Independent
Jim Al-Khalili’s previous films were merely warm ups for this fascinating three-parter.” The Times
