Across the UK, fewer and fewer youngsters want to study chemistry and physics, so with the help of physics teacher Andy Smith, RocketScience sets out to convert a small sample by teaching them everything safe there is to know about fireworks. The series was filmed over a period of nine months. Episodes class wikitable sortable Title Subject Airdate 1 Episode 1 Andy Smith tries to convert his pupils to physics and chemistry . 6 March 2009 2 Episode 2 The class go on field trips to Nevada and Scotland to find out how fireworks are made. 13 March 2009 3 Episode 3 The class visit China to see how fireworks are made, and help to design a fireworks display for Liverpool s European Capital of Culture celebrations. 20 March 2009 Andy Smith won the secondary school teacher of the year for the north west region in 2005. He has also filmed shows for the digital channel Teacher s TV. He is a big Doctor Who fan and has assisted in many conventions in which previous stars of the series attend, notably the Who in the Cavern, which raises money for the Liverpool children s hospital Alder Hey. He once famously presided over a quiz between fifth doctor Peter Davison and sixth doctor Colin Baker, in which his research for once was not as thorough as it is for his lessons.
