Episode 4: e=mc2 - The Mathematics of Speed Dating

Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 FMLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 LW

Following on from Charlotte Cory's 'Thinking of Leaving Your Husband', this romantic comedy series explores the perils of internet dating for the middle-aged man.

In the final episode, Professor Tony (Henry Goodman) no nearer to meeting up with "Moody Twoshoes" - the only woman from his internet dating website FindthePerfectPartner4u.com, with whom he seems at all compatible - tries his hand at speed-dating.

At the Purple Horse in Holborn he meets, very quickly, an extraordinary succession of unsuitable women - all played, as ever, by the redoubtable Lia Williams. But will Tony find true love? Will he find Moody Twoshoes?

Charlotte Cory would like to acknowledge the help of the Mathematics Department of Greenwich University for help with - um, mathematics.
