I often worked with Roger Moore, and what a lovely man he was.
When I asked his permission to use a clip of us from The Persuaders in my one-woman show he said "credit me as a good kisser, as that would do my street-cred a lot of good!"
For the record - he was a GREAT kisser!💋

Oh, it's such a perfect number
I want to count it with you.
Watch Robin Wilson's perfect numbers. Part of his 18-part series on the equations that add up to mathematics. You can watch them all on the Oxford Mathematics YouTube Channel.
Perfect numbers:

Happy birthday to Karen Uhlenbeck, the first woman to be awarded the Abel Prize in 2019 mathshistory.st-andrews.ac.u…

A mathematician who took mathematics to be his passion but was a lawyer; someone who preferred to share his ideas via correspondence rather than publish them; a plague survivor (yes really)... Today is the birthday of Pierre de Fermat (1601-65), the originator of the famous Fermat's Last Theorem.

Pluto isn't doing much here. In fact he's not doing anything at all. But from his sedentary position, he is demonstrating an important piece of mathematics. Doesn't he always?

Who are Field's Medallist James Maynard's heroes?

With Arsene Wenger's daylight rule back in the news this week after some controversial off-side decisions, it seems like a good time to revisit this post from earlier this year.

What an honour to be awarded my MBE in the throne room of Buckingham Palace by The Princess Royal.
Grateful to have TeamSmith watching on and that my deviation from protocol (whipping out a copy of the #MathsNewsletter from my sporran) didn’t result in banishment to the Tower!

Two gorgeous young foxes just enjoying life! Foxes are an integral part of our countryside & yet so persecuted under the pretext of so- called sport & vermin control. Hope they stay safe. Ignore the date, recorded 2024, not 23.
