Hosted by Magda Szubanski, The Spearman Experiment is a pop-culture program that throws a subject into the hands of the Australian public each week to vote for the nation’s most celebrated moments.

That’s right for the first time ever, Australia will countdown via online poll ranking the most celebrated top of mind moments in history. Our celebrity talking heads relive their early memories by celebrating unforgettable events in fashion, music, movies and history that shaped this nations way of life. They’ll tell us where they were when they first heard ‘Too Sexy’ by Right Said Fred. Why Liz Hurley’s safety pin dress attracted so much attention and why Tomb Raider is still the ultimate console game.

So why call it The Spearman Experiment I hear you ask?

Using this brilliant method The Spearman Experiment will deliver a fascinating insight into what makes this beautiful country of ours tick.The Spearman Experiment is a countdown show that’s interactive, it’s ‘now’ and very much ‘of the people.
