Roger Tabor contrasts the River Stour Constable knew with today's waterway. Plus at 12.55 the week's weather with Bernard Davey Film cameraman NIGEL DAVEY Film editor JOHN BLAND Producer MIKE derby

from Aylesbury
The 13th-century church of St Mary is at the physical and spiritual heart of the county town of Buckinghamshire. During recent renovation work, the church was found to be falling down. The options were demolition or rebuilding the church into a community centre. The church was saved and now every day St Mary 's is filled with a variety of activities.
Roger Royle meets the people responsible for this rebirth. He visits Christians working in the burns unit at the nearby Stoke Mandeville Hospital and in Aylesbury prison. He also discovers a couple building the world's first wildlife teaching hospital.
