A continuation of the new serial in 26 parts based on the stories by Mark Twain.

When Huck recognised a boot-print, he guessed his cruel, worthless father was after him for his money. Huck pleaded with Judge Thatcher to take the gold, but the Judge, suspecting the truth, asked Huck to sign it over to him as trustee. Pap found Huck, locked him in an isolated cabin, and then set off to get the money. Now Huck is trying to escape before his father returns.

In captivity their graceful agility and remarkable intelligence make them star performers at seaquaria the world over. In the wild too we see how they've earned a reputation for seeking close contact with man - swimming with him, rescuing him from drowning, even taking him for rides!

Now there's news from Western Australia that wild dolphins are coming right up the beach, dodging playfully between the legs of bathers and accepting food from fascinated spectators - is it pure chance, or yet another astonishing encounter with a marine mammal intent on persuading us to 'join in the swim'?
