A second chance to see the programme which won the BAFTA award for the best factual children's programme of 1986 with Terry Nutkins, Nick Davies and Chris Packham.
Did you hear about the alsation bitch that had 23 puppies? Or the mouse that had 34 babies? What's the nastiest animal in the world? Terry plays host to a 25-centimetre Amazonian leech. Chris climbs the tallest tree in Britain - 60 metres, and it's still growing. And 7-year-old Toby Norton is in the studio to fulfil his ambition to handle a 4-metre-long Indian rock python. This week the programme is in Birmingham.

A ten-part natural history of Britain and Ireland
Presented by Julian Pettifer 6: Out of the Flames
In the wake of the wildwood felled and burned by our ancestors, spread the new landscapes of heathland and moor. Desolate in winter and forsaken by most creatures, they come to life in summer. On sandy southern heathlands, rare smooth snakes emerge from hibernation to hunt, and gaudy sand lizards battle for a mate. Overhead the hobby swoops to pluck dragonflies and swallows from the air.
The northern moorlands are the domain of red grouse, hen harrier, peregrine falcon and the wailing red-throated diver. Here red deer now roam the open glens where forests once echoed to their roar.

The second of two parts. Freddy Kassab , by now convinced that his son-in-law is guilty of the murder of his family, is determined to see justice done. After being frustrated by bureaucracy and the complexity of the case, Kassab seems to have finally succeeded when in January 1975, five years after the killings, MacDonald is charged on three counts of murder. However, some clever manoeuvring and an obscure judgment are to prevent a trial once again ...
