Row sparked by head coach’s decision to leave the 41-year-old on the bench has left a great international career at risk of ending in acrimonyThe drama surrounding Cristiano Ronaldo and the national team has naturally become the biggest story here in Portugal.

The point of armpit hair? The function of each of our body’s furry patches? When the published literature failed to produce satisfying answers, Wearing began her own investigation. Her aim was to shed light on why exactly we evolved these particular patches, with pubic hair the most puzzling of all: was it for warmth, protection … or something else?Wearing is still tangling with those questions, some 30 years after her student days.
