Brian Cox and Robin Ince claw through the science to find out if cats are better than dogs

Brian Cox and Robin Ince battle it out in cats v dogs, joined by TV dragon Deborah Meaden, comedian David Baddiel and canine and feline experts Ben Garrod and Jess French.

Brian Cox and Robin Ince sniff and paw their way through the evidence to put to rest the age-old debate of whether cats are better than dogs. They’re joined by TV dragon and dog devotee Deborah Meaden, comedian and cat compadre David Baddiel, evolutionary scientist Ben Garrod and veterinarian Jess French. They learn how the domestication of our four-legged companions by humans has had a profound impact on their physiology, temperament and methods of communication. They debate which species is the most intelligent and skilled and try to lay to rest the most important question of all – which one really loves you?
