''Rough Science'' is a British documentary reality television series made by the BBC in collaboration with the Open University. Six series were made between 2000 and 2005. It was broadcast in prime time on BBC Two and is considered something of a "break-out hit" for the Open University.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.teuviet.com/movie/series/504174-Rough-Science/seasons/2 )〕 ''Rough Science'' was first shown in 2000. The series' formula consists of a group of four or five scientists with specialities in different fields who are given a task that they must complete using the natural resources of the surrounding area together with a small set of supplies. Each programme features a different task and follows the scientists as they use their knowledge and ingenuity in attempting to fulfil it and, in the process, educate the viewing public — despite failure being common. Each episode either requires the team to work together in smaller groups to create requirements for the overall challenge, for the small groups to fulfil vaguely related challenges or even to complete the same task in competition. It has been set in a different scenic location each series, typically somewhere with plenty of plants for use by the group. The presenter is Kate Humble and groups of scientists — most of the scientists appear in several series. ==Series 1== This series is set on the Mediterranean island of Capraia and features four episodes, and various tasks: # "Mediterranean Mystery" - The group is taken to a disused prison on the island where they have to determine the longitude and latitude of the island, create a radio from a saucepan and create an insect repellent. # "Simmering Shutterbugs" - Create a camera with film, create a compass and dye a flag. # "Power Supplies" - Generate power and build a pharmacy (creating antiseptic using olives and myrtle, and antiflatulent with fennel seeds). # "Sustenance and Sayonara" - Create soap and toothpaste (though the general task is to put food on the table). The scientists featured are: * Vanessa Griffiths, marine biologist who teaches ecology for The Field Studies Council at Orielton Field Centre in Pembrokeshire * Anna Lewington, ethnobotanist and an economic botanist, researching how people, and groups of people, use plants and how this is important to the societies in which they live * Jonathan Hare, chemist, physicist, inventor, and teacher * Mike Leahy, virologist * Mike Bullivant, organic photochemist 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rough Science」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
