This series sadly looks like it’s not going to be what we’ve done to expect from him. I’d stop a long way short of saying it’s not it’s fault snd it’s over his head. The guy is an astrophysicist that works at the large hadron collider at Cern. I’m not sure you’d get that gig if you didn’t have some clue what you were talking about.

“Way over his head” was in relation to the format, content , production and delivery of the these docos / shows which is I assume is controlled, budgeted, edited by the big money producers and directors ( not the well known presenter Scientist like Brian ) If your a well known Celeb / Scientist and allegedly paid big bucks to present , I’d reckon there’s quite a few put up and shut up clauses in your doco contract for being a presenter.
Apologies for not being more specific and yes Brian is a well regarded Scientist and Astrophysicist
