Can you see a brilliant idea on a brain scanner? What brain state do we need to be in to be at our most creative? Can drugs and booze really aid creativity? Do we get more creative as we get older? Can a bump on the head turn you into a genius? Are dreams nonsense or signs of creativity at work? And is the whole left side vs right side of the brain thing just a load of old bollocks?

Who better too ask than Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience Dr Catherine Loveday, as she joins Neil and Simon and cuts through some of the usual free range waffle with the ordered precision of her scientific scalpel, and gives us a little bit of insight into the extraordinary abstract connection machine that is the human brain.
