The Deadliest Creature on Earth
Tourists flock to the sun-drenched beaches of Australia's north Queensland coast - but lurking beneath the waves is a creature which is just as deadly as a shark - the box jellyfish or sea wasp. Its stinging tentacles induce almost unendurable pain - and even death.
This film by BEN CROPP documents for the first time the behaviour of this deadly jellyfish.

with Mark Curry The Power Houses by DOROTHY SMITH
Those strange ruined towers that cling to the cliff tops in Cornwall were once the Power houses of Britain's greatest industrial county.
They housed the engines that Powered the pumps and hauled up the tin from mines that reached out under the Atlantic Ocean.
William Crago was 9 years old when he first went to
Work down the mine. He left behind a diary which tells the story of the day he climbed
1,600 feet down a rung ladder to the dark pit streaming with water which was to be his place of work for the next ten years.

Angela and Paul are both 16 and want to become the Torvill and Dean of roller-skating - to win the Roller Dance Championship of the World. But first they must become British champions, and they and their parents are really working at it. Both mums took cleaning jobs to pay for lessons and for the long drives to the rinks early in the morning and late at night. Angela's dad, Bill, sews on her sequins when the weather's too bad to do his window cleaning.
The film follows Angela and Paul through their first year, through the Junior European Championships in Holland to Bury St Edmunds , where they bid to become the youngest couple in 64 years of roller dance to win the British championship.
