  Country: United Kingdom
  Release

  Runtime: 59 minutes
  
  Content
  Smart and witty, jam-packed with
augmented-reality graphics and fascinating history, this film, presented by Professor David Spiegelhalter, 
  tries
to pin down what chance is and how it works in the real world. 
  For once this really is 'risky' television.

 
  The film follows in the footsteps of The Joy of Stats, which won the prestigious Grierson Award for Best
Science/Natural History programme of 2011. Now the same blend of wit and wisdom, animation, graphics and gleeful nerdery
is applied to the joys of chance and the mysteries of probability, the vital branch of mathematics that gives us a
handle on what might happen in the future. Professor Spiegelhalter is ideally suited to that task, being Winton
Professor for the Public Understanding of Risk at Cambridge University, as well as being a recent Winter Wipeout
contestant on BBC TV.
  
  How can you maximise your chances of living till you're 100? Why do many of us
experience so many spooky coincidences? Should I take an umbrella? These are just some of the everyday questions the
film tackles as it moves between Cambridge, Las Vegas, San Francisco and... Reading.
  
  Yet the film isn't
shy of some rather loftier questions. After all, our lives are pulled about and pushed around by the mysterious workings
of chance, fate, luck, call it what you will. But what actually is chance? Is it something fundamental to the fabric of
the universe? Or rather, as the French 18th century scientist Pierre Laplace put it, 'merely a measure of our
ignorance'.
  
  Along the way Spiegelhalter is thrilled to discover One Million Random Digits, probably the
most boring book in the world, but one full of hidden patterns and shapes. He introduces us to the cheery little unit
called the micromort (a one-in-a-million chance of dying), taking the rational decision to go sky-diving because doing
so only increases his risk of dying this year from 7000 to 7007 micromorts. And in one sequence he uses the latest
infographics to demonstrate how life expectancy has increased in his lifetime and how it is affected by our lifestyle
choices - drinking, obesity, smoking and exercise.
  
  Did you know that by running regularly for half an
hour a day you can expect to extend your life by half an hour a day? So all very well... if you like running.
  
  Ultimately, Tails You Win: The Science of Chance tells the story of how we discovered how chance works, and even to
work out the odds for the future; how we tried - but so often failed - to conquer it; and how we may finally be learning
to love it, increasingly setting uncertainty itself to work to help crack some of science's more intractable
problems.
  
  Other contributors include former England cricketer Ed Smith, whose career was cut down in its
prime through a freak, unlucky accident; 
  Las Vegas gambling legend Mike Shackleford, the self-styled 'Wizard of
Odds'; 
  and chief economist of the Bank of England, Spencer Dale.
