What better way to engage the young audience with some fun into the learning of this science subject. Hosted by Mr Harith Iskander, Malaysia's Godfather of comedy and winner of Laugh Factory's "Funniest Person In The World 2016", Got Science? explores and explains the science of everyday life, using reason, logic, rationale and science. The eight-episode series will explore themes of food, health, fitness, sports, anatomy and technology.


The program will be fast-paced and packed with information, debunking myths, decoding trends and technology. Harith threads these stories together in his inimitable light, tongue-in-cheek style through his running commentary and funny one-liners.

"BBC Earth is home to BBC's world-renowned natural history, science and adventure content. We wanted to do something fast-paced, fun and informative that would be specifically relevant to our audiences in Asia. Got Science? fits the bill. The series explores science around everyday things we see on the Internet to things our mothers told us, like don't' drink alcohol after eating Durian, all told by Harith in his signature comedic style. I am very excited to see people's reaction to the show when it airs on September 11" said Ryan Shiotani, VP, Content, Asia, BBC Studios.


Speaking at the events, Mr Harith Iskander said that " Science was never his favourite subject in school". "So initially I was quite apprehensive when BBC approached me to host Got Science?. I never quite understood the complex scientific theories and formulae the teachers rattled on about in school. I realise now that it wasn't interesting to me because it wasn't relevant to my daily life. Got Science? approaches science in a way that is fresh, fun and accessible. I hope that viewers will enjoy it and have many light bulb moments as I did".


Got Science? will premiere on BBC Earth on Tuesday 11 September 2018 at 8.05pm and will be available on BBC player at the same time.

The next step is to order your flavours which only has 4 flavours which are the Unique Platter (Non-Spicy option) and the Spicy Option (with 3 level of spiciness namely - Spicy Fragrant, Spicy Dynamic and Spicy Xtreme). 

HotPot Kitchen - Spicy Fragrant Taste

For me, I am just good with Level 1 Spicy Fragrant level. If you accidentally bite into the Sichuan peppercorns, there is a unique numbing effect on your tongue, I suppose this is one of the reasons why so many people yearn for these HotPot dishes is to experience this effect.

HotPot Kitchen - Drinks Selection

You can order your drinks at this point. Upon confirming your orders you will be given an electronic buzzer that will buzz when your food is ready.

HotPot Kitchen Menu - Free Coffee
