Synopsis
What is the least possible number of colours needed to fill in any map, so that neighbouring countries are always coloured differently? It sounded simple, but professional mathematicians were to spend over a century solving the puzzle.
Introducing the mathematicians behind the mathematics, among them a bishop, an astronomer, a botanist, an obsessive golfer and a bridegroom who spent his honeymoon colouring maps.
