A Bit Like a Fireman on Shift
The Humber lifeboat is the only permanently manned, full-time lifeboat in the country. Its coxswain, BRIAN BEVAN is one of the most decorated men in the RNLI's service. He, his six crew and their families live at the end of Spurn Point, a strip of land curving into the Humber.
This series of six programmes looks at the life of the men who man Britain's busiest lifeboat. On average it is called out once a week. It will launch in any wind, at night, whatever the sea. But the weather the crew dread most is fog. In tonight's programme we see how they cope with it. Written and narrated by Brian Thompson

Winter is perhaps the best time for star-gazing; the nights are long and dark. Also the winter constellations, led by Orion the Hunter, are brilliant. Patrick Moore talks about the winter Sky at Night and points out some objects which can be seen with binoculars or a small telescope.
