Live from Kenya. Sunrise
In the Masai Mara reserve, the sun climbs majestically over the horizon. The
Africawatch team have been in position since well before dawn. The spectacular wildebeest migration is at its peak, so, for the wildlife watchers, this should be the start of an action-packed day.

Live from Kenya. Early Morning
In September this reserve hosts one of the world's great spectacles. A million migrating wildebeest, zebra and gazelles are on the move in search of succulent short grass. Stalked by hungry predators, their route blocked by fast-flowing rivers, many will fail to reach their destination back in Tanzania.
Throughout the day the mobile Africawatch camera team, accompanied by biologist Jonathan Scott and Fergus Keeling , will keep in touch with Julian Pettifer as the herds continue their hazardous journey.

Government's 'Set Aside' scheme, an idea imported from the USA, is exactly a year old. Two thousand farmers are now assessing their first 12 months in the five-year programme. Anne Brown reports from farms in Essex,
Buckinghamshire and Berkshire, where the impact on both land and farmers has been very different from what was expected.

British Cinema 1939-45
During the six years of the Second World War, more people went to the cinema than ever before, to see British films of an unprecedented high quality: In Which We Serve, The Way Ahead, Western Approaches, Desert Victory, Millions Like Us, The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp and The Way to the Stars.
Was the wartime period the golden age of British cinema, as many have suggested? Did its special conditions provide unique opportunities for the younger generation of film-makers?
Christopher Frayling tells the story of wartime film, with contributions from actor and writer Peter Ustinov , film directors Michael Powell , Roy Boulting , Sidney Gilliat , Pat Jackson and John Taylor , actor Bernard Miles and critic Dilys Powell. Film editor PAUL HARDY

Live from Kenya. Sunset
The sun drops behind the escarpment. Julian Pettifer and Jonathan Scott radio check with Fergus Keeling down on the marsh. Where are the lions? Is the rhino in range? Are the cheetah cubs awake? Have the wild dogs gone hunting? Decisions have to be made. Across Musiara, cameras manoeuvre into position. This is the climax of the Africawatch vigil. In the failing light the team stand by; now could be the time for the most memorable scenes of the day.

"It's not raving maniacs that take other people's lives, it's people who cannot cope with the stresses of life, and finally crumple in an awful, destructive way."
Eight years ago, Graham would never have thought he was capable of killing anyone. He is still struggling to understand why he did. The popular belief is that a typical murderer is a violent maniac. In reality, three out of four are husbands, wives, lovers or children who fail to cope. In this programme, two men who have been tried for murder talk about the pressures which led them to kill.
"Most remarkable and thought-provoking." (London Evening Standard)
