Regarding the point about TV shows about maths," in the UK Dara O Briain made an excellent series caled School of Hard Sums (<a href=""https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dara_%C3%93_Briain:_School_of_Hard_Sums)"">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dara_%C3%93_Briain:_School_of_Hard_Sums)</a> which featured a different pair of guest comedians ('the brawn') pitted against some puzzles set by Marcus du Sautoy. It was very good and I'd love someone to make something similar in future."
