BBC Ideas and the University of Oxford: The Surprising Benefits of Exercising with Friends

This is our 10th film for BBC Ideas – and one we’re particularly proud of. Shot on location at Fulham Reach Boat Club in London and in Cranbrook, Exeter it brings together science and sport in a stylish and engaging way.

The film explores research carried out by Dr Arran Davis at the University of Oxford that suggests that exercising with other people can have benefits over exercising alone. For more information visit the University website here.
