Professor of particle physics at the University of Manchester, Brian Cox is best known for making hard science easy to understand.

Before that he was something of a pop star. His new Sky TV series Solar System investigates the skies above us: from mountains of ice floating on far away worlds, to alien rainstorms and hundred mile-long methane rivers.

Brian speaks with Mihi about the solar system, his life and that one hit wonder.
