Coincidence

from The Why Factor · host BBC World Service

What is coincidence and why do we attach meaning to it? Jo Fidgen hears World Service listeners’ gripping coincidence stories. Some of them are almost unbelievable. But are we simply failing to understand randomness, and the law of truly big numbers? Produced by Charlotte Pritchard (Photo of a young woman with her hands over face. Credit: Getty Images)
