However Did They Manage Without Us?
What did clothes moths live on before human beings provided clothes? Where did swallows gather for migration before we put up telephone wires? And what sort of houses did house mice live in before they moved in with us? This programme looks at some of these unintentional ways in which human beings have provided a wide range of animals with a new way of life.

2: Supercool
Presented by Peter Evans
The disappearance of electrical resistance, a strange property shown by certain metals when exposed to temperatures approaching absolute zero, opens up new and exciting technologies - a working model of the sun trapped in a container with invisible walls: a high-speed train that floats along without touching the track; an ocean-going ship that starts and stops as quickly as an electric train; more efficient generation and distribution of electricity. These could all be products of a phenomenon called superconductivity. We have the knowledge to achieve such advances, but will the economic climate allow them to develop?
