They join Noel to recall the events of 27 years ago.
Tonight, a special edition from Kenya. Elephants pose a huge problem for

Also, the woman who saved the country's banana industry, and a new contraceptive vaccine for baboons that could eventually work for humans, perhaps replacing the pill. Presented by Howard Stableford and Vivienne Parry.
