How to make the perfect cup of tea

It is 70 years since George Orwell published his 11 golden rules of how to make the perfect cup of tea, including that milk should go in last. Now Professor Mark Miodownik has come up with a formula for the perfect tea that includes just four rules - which are based on research by physicists, chemists and engineers.

First broadcast on Today, 22 March 2016.
