The latest news of breakthroughs and innovations in the worlds of science, medicine and technology. Drugs are in such widespread use in American society that traces of cocaine are to be found on every dollar bill in circulation. But a vaccine tested on rats that prevents cocaine from taking effect by blocking its path to the brain may provide the answer for the country's 4,000,000 heavy users. For 33-year-old Peggy, a habitual cocaine user since the age of 13, the vaccination could offer the hope of returning to a normal life. Plus, a report on trials being carried out on personal satellite navigation. Using technology developed by the US military to direct troops, the system could aid blind people to negotiate their way around the obstacles to be found in an unfamiliar city centre.

Presented by Howard Stableford and Shahnaz Pakravan, with reports from Vivienne Parry, Jez Nelson, Rebecca Stephens and Philippa Forrester.

Reconstructing real-life rescues, with Michael Buerk and Juliet Morris.
Tonight: how rescuers risked their lives on the sands off Southend to save a trapped teenager before the tide engulfed him; the detective work required to locate a lorry driver who has a mobile phone but can't use it to make anyone aware of his plight; and the chain of people who refused to allow a man to die after a crash broke bones in every limb of his body, injuries that later required 10 metal plates, 32 pins, 50 screws and six grams of gold.
