Bees are incredible creatures. While they may be largely overlooked by us humans, they have long been central to our way of life, and indeed our very existence. Jonathan is joined by the inimitable Thor Hanson, author of 'Buzz: The Nature and Necessity of Bees' to delve into the world of the bee, the intricate ways they communicate with each other, and their essential part in our natural world.
