Radio 4 in Four

Richard Coles and Aasmah Mir are joined by Sophie Scott, a neuroscientist with a particular interest in laughter. No surprise then that she also does stand-up comedy. Sophie explains why people laugh (or don't laugh) and when you know if it's real or not. First broadcast on Saturday Live, 7 May 2016.
