Live reports on what's new, fascinating and bizarre in the world of science and technology.
To mark the imminent start of the holiday season, tonight's programme aims to cover everything anyone ever wanted to know about travelling but didn't know who to ask.
There is a report on how to overcome the lethargy of long-distance flying: it has been suggested that bright lights and brisk walks could help combat the horrors of jet-lag. Plus a future alternative to holiday vaccinations, a black-box flight recorder for your car, and that indispensible aid for the family on the road, a cot in a suitcase! And there is also a chance to win a family holiday with a scientific twist.
With Kate Bellingham, Carmen Pryce, Howard Stableford and Judith Hann.

Editor Dana Purvis

The return of the documentary series.
Why Women Kill. Last year, in America, 682 men were killed by their wives or girlfriends. That is the tip of an iceberg in which an estimated three or four million women are physically and psychologically battered and abused by their partners each year. Some kill to escape their predicament, but in many cases the courts will not let these women explain what motivated them. A life sentence is not unusual and some women are even sentenced to death. In this programme prisoners in Alabama and Texas reveal how they came to commit such acts. Producer Olivia Lichtenstein
