The supermarkets are going green. They have taken full-page advertisements in the press to say so. Ian Breach asks, 'How green is your grocer?', especially when it comes to food. He discovers that the major retail chains have hardly been in a hurry. Producers of organically grown fruit, vegetables and meat have been knocking on supermarket doors for years, with little success - until very recently.
Plus at 12.55pm the weather for the countryside with Michael Fish.

The Scottish Tories are in trouble and they know it. The failure to win a single seat in Scotland at the European elections has raised fears that the next general election could prove terminal. That could only strengthen calls for devolution and independence and might spell the end of one-nation Toryism. But Scottish
Conservatives are deeply divided over the solution to their woes. Malcolm Rifkind , Secretary of State for
Scotland, explains how he would revive Tory fortunes north of the border. Presented by Jonathan Dimbleby with John Cole.

Designer Genes with Joan Bakewell.
Man now has the capacity to manipulate DNA, the very code for life itself. In doing so, he has created plants and creatures which would never have existed were it not for genetic engineering. Is this new knowledge a force for good, or a Pandora's Box with alarming implications? Joan Bakewell examines both the scientific and philosophical implications of our capacity to alter life on earth. Director CLAIRE HOBDAY
