Comedian Nick Revell explains why he manages to be optimistic - despite all the evidence.
"These days it's perhaps easier than ever to get pessimistic at the state of the world; I've had periods when I would wake up in the morning, check the news and ask myself if it's even worth moisturising.

Recorded in front of a live audience at the WOMAD world music and arts festival in Wiltshire.
Presenter: Helen Zaltzman
