Squeezing muscles, waving muscles, levering muscles, spring muscles and jumping muscles. He'll be in deep water seeing how Archimedes showed his muscles, how to travel first class and still keep a balance and how to keep a camera steady When you're all over the place.

Do you know all you've ever wanted to know about comets? Did you know that the evolution of the moon was a history of catastrophes? Eye-witness accounts of a lunar collision made in the 12th century can be proved by modern scientific techniques. The romantic planet Venus is in fact surrounded by clouds of concentrated sulphuric acid. Explanations of all this and more in this week's Cosmos.

with Terry Jones.

Iris Murdoch is the most distinguished popular novelist of her generation. From her sensational debut with Under the Net in 1954 to her latest paperback The Sea, The Sea, she has combined a gift for compulsive story-telling with high comedy and displayed a brilliant mind and a warm heart. Tonight she makes a rare television appearance to talk about her own work with Terry Jones and Paul Theroux, the author of The Great Railway Bazaar, whose latest novel in paperback is called Picture Palace. There will also be a round-up of recent travel books.
