Five films on modern France
This town in the Alps was a quiet, provincial backwater at the turn of the century, known only for glove-making and the magnificence of its mountain location. By the mid 60s it had become not only the site for the 1968 Winter Olympics, but a blueprint for the future.

This BAFTA award-winning series returns with a remarkable documentary, probably the most revealing portrait of Afghanistan at war yet made.
Taking over a year to make, and filmed at great personal risk, Jihad contains sequences of combat, interrogation of prisoners, and daily life under Soviet occupation. It concentrates on a group of Afghan warriors, based in Kandahar, the country's second largest city. They include a 9-year-old street assassin and a chief executioner of the Islamic Court. Several were captured or killed during the making of the film.
The war in Afghanistan is nearly seven years old: it has cost over 1,000,000 lives, and created 4,000,000 refugees.
But coverage of it in the West has been sparse. This film shows the war at closer quarters than ever before.

Fifth of eight programmes on the mammals of Britain by Tony Soper
Red, roe and fallow are all native species of deer.
Stalking the 'Monarch of the Glen' in Scotland may be fun but it is not the best or easiest way of seeing a good red stag. Drive through London's
Richmond Park however, and you'll come close to both red and fallow. But to see a roe deer you'll need your wits about you - either that, or a plentiful supply of roses! Film editor HUGH TASMAN Producer BRYN BROOKS (R)
Book, £8.95/£4.95, by Tony Soper - a practical guide to the 27 common species of British mammal - is available from booksellers.
Autumn skies may be less brilliant than those of other seasons, but there is plenty of interest. In this programme Patrick Moore discusses the main features, with special reference to binocular observations, and gives a timetable for the eclipse of the moon which will be seen on 17 October. And the continuing story of Halley's Comet. The latest stunning series of black and white pictures from Giotto's camera - seen for the first time on television - will give scientists the clues to exactly what organic materials the comet contains.
