Why can't I remember being a baby?

About this episode

How far back can you remember? I bet you can't remember being a baby. Most people can't and it's a total mystery as to why.

Why does this happen? Where did my memories go? And is there any way we can get them back? 

In this episode, Michael and Dan chat to experts Sally and Carole about where our earliest childhood memories go and whether there's any way we can re-remember them.
