Can they help her find the answer?This listener may, or may not, be the team's producer, Michelle.

And head direction cells that appear to be pointing the wrong way. More understanding should surely be afforded to those who are navigationally challenged.Hugo Spiers from University College London, has devised a free game called 'Sea Hero Quest' which anyone can use to test their navigational skills. Plus Catherine Loveday from the University of Westminster suggests strategies to help those who tend to get lost.If you have any Curious Cases for us to solve please email [email protected]: Adam Rutherford & Hannah Fry Producer: Michelle Martin.
