Is water far stranger than we think?

Can you drink lava as a hot cup of water? Is ice actually a rock? Is water wet? Professor Hannah Fry and Michael Stevens dive into the hidden life of H₂O and uncover why it behaves in such surprising ways.

They explore the minerals that shape the taste of your favourite drinks, the tiny isotopes that reveal where a person or a whale has travelled, and the reason pure water can be deadly. They show how yesterday’s sewage could fuel tomorrow’s energy and why the water in your glass might be older than the Sun.

A deep look at the world’s most familiar liquid. Water is stranger, rarer, and more extraordinary than you ever imagined.
