Dr. Dean Lomax

He's a paleontologist as well.

He's a good friend as well, Steve.

So he's at the University of Edinburgh and he was for at least the last...

The last two Jurassic movies, he was the main consultant.

Oh, wow.

Which is pretty cool.

He looks pretty envious of that, to be honest.

Yeah, yeah, it's cool.

But yeah, he's a good chap.

I would probably go with something that was quite pivotal to my early career and something I know we'll probably get into a little bit later.

But there was an ichthyosaur.

This is a type of ancient marine reptile.

Look a little bit like dolphins or sharks, but they're not dinosaurs.

I've got to say that.

So not dinosaurs, not swimming dinosaurs.

They lived at the same time, but swimming in the seas.

There was one that I...

came across whilst volunteering at my local museum in Doncaster, and they thought it was a plaster copy, and they were letting children do brass rubbings of the ribs and things, right, legit.

To be fair, with all due respect, they didn't have a geologist paleontologist, and nobody realized that it wasn't real.

They thought it was a plaster copy, right?
