The last of six voyages with Clare Francis
Narrated by Laurence Olivier

In recent years man has explored and mapped the previously unknown seven-tenths of the globe-the sea bed; he has discovered new rich fields of minerals and new life forms; he has begun to harness the power of the sea as energy. In her final voyage, Clare Francis sails with a US scientific expedition, and in the tiny submersible, Alvin, dives more than a mile to the bottom of the ocean.

"Miss Francis makes an ideal personality to guide us on this fascinating voyage with her confident expertise and her easy storytelling style. She packs a lot o/ fun as well as information into it" (Daily Express)

The third of six programmes
John Polkinghorne , formerly Professor of Mathematical Physics at the University of Cambridge, talks to Ronald Eyre about the relationship between his scientific discipline and his Christian beliefs: ' We live in an age which has seen in a very clear way the tremendous success of the scientific method in understanding the structure of the world. Now the religious sphere is not a sphere in which suddenly everybody reaches universal agreement and there's a tremendous temptation to feel that the successful area is a real knowledge and the other area is not.'

Two programmes on tapestry, its history, special qualities and delights.
1: Real Life to Romance
What is tapestry? When and how did the necessary craft of weaving become an art? Ceremonial dress for a Peruvian Indian, propaganda for a Sun King - tapestry has been both these things.
In this programme Edwin Mullins looks at its beginnings, from the earliest surviving pieces of Egyptian, Coptic, Chinese and Peruvian work, through specific images of the Apocalypse in 14th-century France, to the courtly romance of The Lady and the Unicorn.
