A See-Saw programme
By barge and boat across England Pete Morgan makes a leisurely journey from the Irish Sea to the North Sea, observing life along the way.
From the Mersey to the Pennines Pete begins his travels on the Mersey Ferry before boarding the narrow boat Lady Galadriel, which lifts him high into the Pennines - a journey which takes him past some of Britain's oldest industrial settings to the quiet beauty of the North's rural uplands.

Gentle Giants!
There's no doubt who stole the show during this year's Summer Expedition - the elephants.
They're Sri Lanka's most useful piece of farm equipment, with great advantages over the tractor. For instance, you don't need import licences, or any spares. An elephant has no use for petrol or oil, he's very unlikely to break down, and he can get to places where no wheeled vehicle can penetrate. But his greatest advantage is his intelligence.
Simon, Peter and Janet discovered bathing Goldie is a pushover, compared with scrubbing their four-ton tuskers. They used coconut husks for loofahs and a soaking wet time was had by all-there's no doubt elephants have a huge sense of humour!
Don't miss today's first report, and catch up with the latest news about the four-legged members of. the Blue Peter team - Goldie, Jack, and George the tortoise.

A series of eight films exploring America and its botanical history. 2: Real Estates
In the still-smoking crater of Mount St Helens volcano, David Bellamy begins to piece together the story of how this newest bit of the New World is transformed into its most precious resource. His journey takes him through the rapids in the Grand Canyon, on to a giant staircase of time, and up and away in a balloon over California. There are clues in a pygmy forest, some more among the biggest trees in the world, and in a river bed at the top of a mountain; and finally the answer lies in the soil.

Pinochet: The Hollow Cheers Presented by Fred Emery
Ten years ago yesterday General Augusto Pinochet came to power after a military coup in which Marxist President Allende was killed.
Demonstrations this year against Pinochet's regime have been ruthlessly dispersed, but even as he celebrates a decade in power there are clear signals that his time is running out. Philip Tibenham reports from Chile on the growing pressure to depose the General - and on why Britain still supports his military Junta.

Few writers knew more about the ' games of love ' than the French 18th-century dramatist Marivaux. Beneath the surface of this rumbustious knockabout comedy lie some sharp insights into why certain women fall in love with certain men and why those same men find other women so attractive.
