The happiest stories in the world - our weekly collection

This week, we meet one of the hundreds of ballerinas who balanced on their toes in New York to set a new world record. Also: how a generous stranger gave a kidney to a five-year-old girl. And we hear from Europe's best seagull impersonator. 

Presenter Andrew Peach.
Music produced by Iona Hampson.
