The famous wildlife adventure film.
From the majestic dignity of the elephant to the engaging antics of a honey badger cub,
Jamie Uys has captured the lives of the animals of south-west Africa in amazing and fascinating detail.
In order to film his 'beautiful people', the wildlife of this huge region, he travelled more than 100,000 miles from the red desert of the Namib - which supports an astonishing variety of animals - to the vast area of the Kalahari and the lush banks of the Kovango river. Narrator Paddy O'Byrne
Produced, filmed and directed by JAMIE UYS

You have probably gathered by now that this modest little series has not been purely about cooking, it's more of an insight into the way the British neglect the fishy delights that surround their shores. In tonight's programme, the last in the current series, Keith Floyd discovers the joys of freshly gathered cockles and dedicates his own fish soup to the fishermen of the west country.

The last of eight programmes with Jeremy Cherfas on the changing face of zoos and wildlife parks.
Closer and Closer
In Australia, you can watch turtles come ashore and lay their eggs; in Japan, you can stand knee-deep in wild monkeys; while in the Sea of Cortez people pat whales - a dream cherished by many but available to very few.
Jeremy Cherfas confronts wild elephant seals, swims with sea lions, and visits other places which specialise in close contact with uncaged animals - the zoo experience, but in the wild.
