Between 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm "Ancient genes in modern clothing" is showing in King Street Hall, Kirkwall.
Our bodies have been shaped by evolution through several hundred years of hunting - how well then can we expect them to cope with a life behind an office desk and in an armchair watching television? Dr Jim Logan, Principal of Moray College and consultant physiologist, looks at the latest research on diet, exercise and disease. Ingunn Fjørtoft of Telemark University College in Norway shows how natural landscapes to play in, in forests or mountains, help children's development.
The show is sponsored by Royal Norwegian Consulate General, Edinburgh
