SUMMARY:Serendipity
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alan Hunton \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSerendipity is a remarkable phenomenon which describes a most beneficial outcome achieved purely by chance. We will see that a significant number of scientific discoveries throughout history have been made by mistake; such that the intended result failed but the unintended consequence was so dramatic and useful to society that the researcher was then awarded a Nobel prize. \n\n\n\nA well-known example is that of the work of Alexander Fleming who had the foresight to realise that the mouldy formation that appeared in a petri dish that he had forgotten to clean could be useful. At the time he was not studying antibiotics but he understood there was potential and penicillin has since saved millions of lives. \n\n\n\nIn this talk we will look at ten different Eureka moments in history and we can ask the question\, do the people who made such discoveries deserve the recognition and reward given that they stumbled upon the outcomes?

SUMMARY:One Life
DESCRIPTION:5:00pm doors open\, for 5:30pm start (ends 7:45pm) \n\n\n\nU3A Membership Card for entrance (free) – NO booking required \n\n\n\nThe true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton\, a young London broker who\, in the months leading up to World War II\, rescued 669 predominantly Jewish children from the Nazis. Nicky visited Prague in December 1938 and found families who had fled the rise of the Nazis in Germany and Austria\, living indesperate conditions with little or no shelter and food\, and under threat of Nazi invasion. He immediately realized it was a race against time. How many children could he and the team rescue before the borders closed? Fifty years later\, it’s 1988 and Nicky lives haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to bring to safety in England; always blaming himself for not doing more. It’s not until a live BBC television show\, ‘That’s Life’\, surprises him by introducing him to some surviving children – now adults – that he finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he had carried for five decades.
