Dr Robert Raven is a spider expert from Australia, but it's an unusual profession for him to have chosen, given that he has a phobia of spiders. His job involves going into the outback, finding spiders and naming them. He tells Emily Webb about some of the famous names he's given to the new species of spiders he's found.
