A weekly series.
Introduced by Johnny Morris with Keith Shackleton.
The World of Animals
In the wild, in the zoo, at home: a magazine of stories about animals constantly illustrating their own kind of magic.
from the South and West

The Animal Magic team have not been idle as you'll see today when the programme begins a new thirteen-week series. 'Keeper' Johnny Morris remembers the occasion when his 'Uncle' Ernie had the task of counting all the animals at Bristol Zoo when they were stocktaking many years ago. A big job, and he was wise to use a bicycle.
Keith Shackleton shows a film about the emergence from the winter months of the Emperor Butterfly.
The winners of last year's 'Wild Life in Tanzania' competition, Anne Murwill of Bidborough, Kent, and Philip Shotton of Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, took time off while they were looking at the Tanzanian game reserves to have a picnic beside a rushing jungle stream - and there will be film of this in the programme.

by John Hopkins.
With Margery Mason as Mother
and Maurice Denham, Michael Bryant, Judi Dench.

The final part of the John Hopkins quartet goes back in time to the Sunday morning before Terry pays her unexpected visit to her parents' home. Mrs. Stephens is preparing the lunch as she has done for the past thirty years...

The author gets right inside the mother's mind and gives us an insight of the terrible, engulfing blackness that can overcome her during the routine, day-to-day existence.

This play won for John Hopkins the Guild of Television Producers and Directors Award for the best script of 1967.

A series of music and arts features.

A programme about musical child prodigies.

"If the sea-serpent provides a good topic for newspaper gossip in the summer, the infant prodigy serves a similar purpose when the musical season begins"
"Prodigies are now too numerous to be accounted prodigious - except in numbers"
"It was when at the age of two-and-a-half he sang from memory an L.P. of 'The Marriage of Figaro' in Italian that we realised he was unusual"
"I like playing in public and I always die for the applause" - a ten-year-old
"We found ourselves with a little boy with an enormous need for music"

Is it true that prodigies become neurotic or die young? Should young children be allowed to perform in public? What are the chances of making the transition from child prodigy to mature artist?

Robin Ray talks to some musical prodigies and discusses with their parents and with Yehudi Menuhin some of the problems which face highly gifted children.
With Oliver Knussen, Terence Judd and Mr. and Mrs. Judd, Barnaby Marder and Mr. and Mrs. Marder, Trevor Fisher, George Robb

The Youth Music Centre String Orchestra
Conducted by Roy Budden
