During Friday's episode of Have I Got News For You, UK TV legend turned political commentator Carol Vorderman delivered a scathing takedown of former prime minister Boris Johnson amid his latest scandal. Johnson is currently embroiled in another lockdown-related controversy with claims that gatherings he held at Chequers broke Covid restrictions. Given that Johnson is back in the news again its no surprise that he was a subject of conversation on HIGNFY once more but not to the delight of Vorderman. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The 62-year-old TV presenter said: "Boris Johnson is like a dose of diarrhoea that keeps on giving, is he not? Every single time you switch on the news, he's still there. How does this happen?" Regularly HIGNFY panelist Ian Hislop wittily replied: "I think it's something to do with the system."

The human body is a marvel of science and researchers have discovered a strange reoccurring mathematical pattern within its cells. Our bodies are made up of a massive variety of individual cells with countless different functions, from neurons in our nervous system to the oxygen carriers that all work in harmony to keep us alive. Experts from scientific research institutions in Germany, Canada, Spain, and the US have worked together on a study to determine just how many cells of each type there are in the human body and the results are staggering. They found that most adult males possess around 36 trillion cells, while adult females have in the region of 28 trillion cells. For a 10-year-old child, they have around 17 trillion. Interestingly though, scientists discovered that, regardless of the total number of cells, if they are grouped according to their function, the proportions for each individual remain the same. The researchers explained in their findings: “These patterns are suggestive of a whole-organism trade-off between cell size and count and imply the existence of cell-size homeostasis across cell types.” Scientists believe there is a natural balancing act at play between different cell types with new cells being produced to maintain the balance. The body produces fewer larger cells (such as muscle fibres) and more smaller cells (like blood cells). It is hoped that future studies will be able to uncover exactly how this happens and how bodies seem to naturally regulate cells. They explained that all cells are perfectly sized for their roles and any deviation from their scale can indicate the presence of disease. Experts have made their data, analysis and results public in the hopes that future studies into biology will be able to utilise their research.
