Practical cooking demonstrations and commentary explains where each of the ingredients for a traditional spaghetti Bolognese comes from. It explores the northern Italian roots of the dish. It shows how the dish can be made with fresh beef mince and homemade pasta dough extruded using a pasta machine. It shows how wheat is grown, and which part of the wheat plant is used to extract the grain, thus how a crop of wheat is made into flour then pasta. A farmer in Yorkshire explains about how modern farming uses different breeds of cow for different things, so that we have cows for meat (beef mince for the Bolognese) and for milk. It explains the importance of browning the meat for flavour and how the flavours develop during simmering. It explains the role of the additional ingredients such as tomatoes and carrots (for sweetness/sourness) and parmesan cheese (Savoury and saltiness), as well as herbs (basil) to create a dish of balanced flavours.

Presenters Lauren Layfield and Joe Tracini and The Dengineers team help Dilara from Leeds create a Turkish-style den. They investigate the engineering challenges behind keeping the temperature inside the den just right. They focus on controlling the sunlight and the ventilation. They demonstrate how having a door at the back and the front of the den allows air to circulate all the way through and avoids any warm air getting trapped. To deal with sunlight potentially overheating the den they have no windows in the south side of the den and add a roof window that provides light, but avoids any direct sunlight.

This clip is from The Dengineers, a children's DIY television series on CBBC hosted by Lauren Layfield and Joe Tracini. With the help of expert designers and builders they create extraordinary children's dens, encountering design challenges along the way.

Presenters Lauren Layfield and Joe Tracini and The Dengineers team help budding astrophysicist Helena from Dumfries and Galloway create an observatory style den. The structure will have a roof that can rotate 360 degrees to give a full view of the night sky. They demonstrate how this can be achieved by sitting a domed roof on fixed castors that will allow the roof to rotate smoothly but keep it securely in position.

This clip is from The Dengineers, a children's DIY television series on CBBC hosted by Lauren Layfield and Joe Tracini. With the help of expert designers and builders they create extraordinary children's dens, encountering design challenges along the way.

Presenters Lauren Layfield and Joe Tracini and The Dengineers team help Kiran from Coventry create a witchcraft and wizardry den. The den will have an area for mixing potions, using dry ice to create a mysterious and smoky effect. They demonstrate how dry ice works, as a solid form of carbon dioxide with a surface temperature of -78 degrees Celsius. They explain that normally when heating an object, such as an ice cube, it will transform from a solid to liquid before turning into a gas. But dry ice is so cold it heats up really quickly and misses out the liquid state in the middle turning straight into gas. This process in called sublimation.

Presenters Lauren Layfield and Joe Tracini and The Dengineers team help Cammy from Hampshire create a sensory den that is just for him, away from all his siblings. One of the key features is a swing seat that hangs from the ceiling. To make sure it can support Cammy's weight they have added a steel plate and fixed it across more than one joist. They demonstrate how when someone sits in the hammock the weight is spread evenly across the ceiling joists and down the walls making it suitable for both children and adults.

Presenters Lauren Layfield and Joe Tracini and The Dengineers team help the kids from Claire House Children's Hospice create a tree-house inspired village den. They take a closer look at the den's water wheel, and demonstrate how they have made it environmentally friendly. The wheel needs a constant flow of water to keep it moving so, to avoid leaving a tap running, the team have had a pump fitted to the wheel that sucks water up from the pit and transports it to the top of the wheel. As the water drops back into the bottom it's sucked back up by the pump, through the hose and back round the wheel. This means the water is constantly recycled.

Andy Torbet is on a mission to match the hovering skills of the hummingbird.

Flapping their wings 80 times per second, these are the only birds in the world able to hover in one spot.

They use this to help them extract nectar from flowers with their long beaks.

To match this super-skill, Andy has been set a tough Beyond Bionic challenge - to find a way of defying gravity to mimic a hummingbird.

Can he find the right tech to help him, or will he get into a flap?

This is how do hummingbirds defy gravity to hover?

This clip is from the series, Beyond Bionic.

Suitable for teaching Science or Design and Technology at KS2 and 3 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and at 2nd and 3rd Level in Scotland.
