The classic adventures of 'Toad', 'Mole and Ratty' in The Wind in the Willows are unforgettable childhood introductions to nature.

Underground and underwater, among the wild creatures of a Devon river bank, we discover the true lifestyle of one of Kenneth Grahame's fictional characters - 'Ratty', or to be more accurate, the water vole, one of our smallest aquatic mammals.

Omnibus presents the TV premiere of Franco Rosso's highly-praised film, made for the Arts Council. In Jamaica the poet is the voice of the people: 'toaster ' poets chant improvised lines to a backing of reggae music at dance halls, parties, anywhere people go to enjoy themselves.
Linton Kwesi Johnson, born in Jamaica, now resident in London, is a poet, writer and musician whose style is rooted in the Jamaican tradition in which art, society, politics and music are inextricably bound together.
This is a film not only about Linton Johnson but also about the community to which he addresses himself, the Black working-class community in London.
'I don't believe that poetry changes anything... You could write a thousand songs but that won't bring about the revolution.'
