Channel: Richard Dawkins
It was 10 years after he had completed his doctorate, in 1976, that Richard Dawkins garnered the attention of the science community with his first published book, The Selfish Gene. Since then, he has successfully ploughed forward to establish himself as a leading authority in genetics and is well known for his views on evolution and religion.
After all these years, Dawkins clearly has not tired of his work. ‘What The Selfish Gene did was to say that it was really the genes that we need to focus on. In a way all I was doing was changing the way we look at what was already familiar and focusing on the genes as the actors in the drama.’

OK I clicked on HI RES as suggested, but it’s the same video as Part I….
Hi Elbuho,
We’re uploading another version of that clip now as we speak. Turns out
there was a problem with that video and I’m re-encoding it now.
It should be Part 2 of the Exclusive Profile, and it will be on the site in
about an hour, so check back later today!
Thanks so much for the interest in the channel, and for the feedback. We’re
still in beta and we’re working to improve and develop the site all the
time. Letting us know when there are glitches or problems in the site is a
massive help, so thank you.
Let me know if you have any suggestions for the site, anything you think we
should improve, and what you would like to see more of.

Is there any way to watch all of these without clicking on the individual videos?
Hi Shona-
If you go to http://www.t5m.com/richard-dawkins/tv then you can watch ALL of the clips from our interviews with Richard Dawkins, one after another.
You won’t need to go and click on each clip, rather watch all clips in one place. You can skip through them by clicking Next, if you’ve seen some already.
Sit back and enjoy!
Thanks for the comment, and please never hesitate to ask questions or leave suggestions. We’re still in beta so please tell us what you’d like us to improve, or fix!
Hazel
