Is NHS cash being spent on luxuries for officials while hospitals have to rely on charity? Sybil Ruscoe meets the top surgeon who's gone undercover to expose life inside Quarry House, the new NHS headquarters in Leeds. Has your house been burgled recently? If so it might be just the beginning of your problems. Sankha Guha reports on the phenomenon of repeat burglaries.
Also, war on the riverbank. Mark Easton speaks to the small and extreme band of angling saboteurs. They claim fishing is cruel and resort to direct action to disrupt fishing competitions. They use frogmen to cut fishing lines, and on the banks of the River Severn a fist-fight breaks out between anglers and saboteurs. Producer Steve Anderson

It is six months since
Frank Bruno 's last world-title boxing challenge ended with defeat by Lennox Lewis for the WBC heavyweight championship. His professional record now stands at 36 wins and four losses (to James "Bonecrusher" Smith, Tim Witherspoon and Mike Tyson prior to Lewis).
At 32 he embarks on his latest comeback with a non-title bout against the 36-year-old
American Jesse Ferguson , live from Birmingham's NEC.
Ferguson's best recent result was a victory over former champion Ray Mercer in a modest career record of 20 wins in 31 fights. The much loved
Bruno must win tonight if he is to extend his career in the ring.
Harry Carpenter is at the ringside. Plus the latest football, cricket and racing news. Producer Vivien Kent

In the early 60s robbery was relatively easy. Security in banks, by today's standards, was almost non-existent, and a shot fired at the ceiling would stand a good chance of shocking most cashiers into submission. Even the Great Train Robbers did not feel it necessary to take guns with them and, as Buster Edwards and Tommy Wisbey recall, they were totally unprepared for the long sentences they received despite their lack of firearms. These sentences, though, did little to deter fellow robbers from using guns and the number of bank raids increased greatly.
