The latest news from the world of science and technology.
Presented by Maggie Philbin, Kieran Prendiville, Peter Macann and Judith Hann
The sun goes down, the lights go out, and then - for human beings, so dependent on eyesight - it's 'the dead of night'.
But night is far from dead. It's the time when a whole other world of animals feed, fight and mate and live out their lives. It's the hour when the fox stalks his prey, when the barn owl pounces on a luckless vole, beetles mate and spiders moult and the nightingale's song floats free of daytime competitors. Through the eyes and ears of the animals of darkness this programme unfolds the story of one imaginary night in the English countryside.
