A series of programmes taking a new look at British wildlife - through the eyes of the British public. It uses the latest filming techniques of the BBC
Natural History Unit to answer questions.
Capercaillies are huge grouse that live a secret life in the ancient forests of Scotland, yet gamekeeper Jimmy Oswald knows them so well that he can take the cameras right up close. Policeman Martin Edge guides the crew on a dive under
Swanage pier in search of crabs, fish and the coral known as dead man's fingers. Jo Root has spent the summer digging for worms to feed to her lodger - a monster cuckoo chick living in a robins' nest in her shed. Why do the robins feed the cuckoo? And what have the adult cuckoos been doing all summer? Series producer Paul Appleby
JOIN THE NATURE DETECTIVES: if you've captured unusual wildlife events with your camcorder, or have an interesting tale to tell, write (enclosing your tape) to series producer. Paul Appleby , at: Nature Detectives, BBC Bristol BS8 2LR.

Last in the series about crime, the victims of crime and the people whose lives are affected by its consequences. The object is to try to right the balance in favour of the people criminals try not to think about - those whom the justice system itself often seems to overlook.
The series also features reconstructions of important cases from the past that have led to judicial and forensic breakthroughs.
Tonight, how a witness to a fatal stabbing fought back against a campaign of intimidation; the family who don't know who killed their daughter, four years after her death; and in this week's landmark case, how fingerprints were first used to bring murderers to justice. Presented by Nick Ross. Producer Nicola Moody
