You've heard of mad March hares. But why mad? Maybe because of their boxing matches which, if you're lucky, you can see not only in March but in early summer as well. Mike goes out looking at these curious and charming animals that are steadily disappearing from the British countryside.

by Richard Curtis and Rowan Atkinson.
Shudders for all in another almost unbearably exciting yarn from the really dark part of the Dark Ages.
Rowan Atkinson is The Black Adder with Elspet Gray (Queen), Tony Robinson (Baldrick) and Tim Mclnnerny (Percy).

The King's international treachery gives the hideous Edmund a chance to press his clammy body against one of Europe's most eligible Princesses.

4 Shudders from the series are available from BBC Enterprises at £16.95 the pair.

The King wishes to form an alliance between England and Spain, and insists that Edmund marries the Infanta Maria Escalosa of Spain. Edmund is unimpressed by her lack of beauty.

Half a million people stopped smoking when So You Want to Stop Smoking was shown last year. Were you one of them? Did you 'stay stopped'? Or are you still struggling?
Dr Miriam Stoppard finds out how the four ' stoppers' coped over the last year, and hears from viewers about their own successes and failures. Sir Robin Day , who smoked 20 cigarettes and 20 small cigars every day. tells how he stopped and what happened. Dr Howard Williams looks at some of the diseases you avoid as soon as you stop smoking, and gives practical advice on how to deal successfully with the most common problems of ' staying stopped ' in the long term.
