I absolutely love the concept of this series.

[@Cyus42]

You’re not a clickbait channel, and that’s what people love! That’s what I love!

[@apanapane]

I found your channel via Computerphile. Loved your way of telling a story, so I was happy to subscribe to your channel.

What magical unicorn are you though? I'm curious.

Vicki looks different in this one

Apologies for my ignorance but is this an All The Stations joke?

So basically follow the Henry stick in rule “Make sure no matter the result the user gets, its enjoyable in some way”

[@MattMarshallUK]

I'm really impressed how you do these in a single take. I don't think I can talk for 30 seconds without saying ERRR or without completely forgetting the point I was trying to make.

[@DrachenYT]

Computerphile is actually the channel I used to find your account. You've hit the message right on the nail: connections are key!

To a southerner the North starts at Watford Gap, to a Northerner the south starts at the Tyne. The Midlands are large and negative.

[@Charky_Creations]

I think the Tyne is a bit optimistic. The wear though... Perhaps. Certainly past the tees.

'aut south of Sheffield is southern :D Jay Forman has a particularly good video about the the line actually is in his Map Men series, it's worth a watch.

Having grown up in Plymouth, I firmly believe everything past Torbay is The North

The way he’s whispering in what looks like a closet makes this look like a conspiracy video that the government doesn’t want us to see

[@DivingWithMatt]

Loving this series lots of little tid bits in it to think about. Be interesting to put some of them to work and see where is gets us.

I just took the quiz. I have lived my entire life in in Minnesota, USA. But I am 29% northern and should be from somewhere around London! Who knew? Thanks for the fun few minutes Tom.

I just found out I CAN do simple “maths” under pressure.
