Real-life stories about children today, told by children themselves.
The fast-moving story of an annual event that involves over half a million boys throughout the country - Scout Job Week. Every year they raise money for the organisation in the most extraordinary ways.
What was once called 'bob-a-job' week has seen some big changes along with scouting itself. From boys in Belfast overcoming religious differences, to refugees from Vietnam in Handsworth, it goes to show it's not all 'dyb, dyb, dyb'.

A Second Chance
Omnibus opens its new season by talking to some of the architects who have been at the sharp end of Prince
Charles's criticism. Today an exhibition opens at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London exploring some of his ideas on how Britain should look in the future. His film, A Vision of Britain, was shown last night, and the book setting out his code of ten principles for architects was recently published.
But is the Prince of Wales right to single out individual buildings for criticism and to focus the debate on the issue of style? Will his 'Ten
Commandments' ease the crisis in our cities or is a more inspired and radical approach needed to put quality back into our buildings and take us into the 21st century? Producer IAN potts
