1/2. In 2003, only 27 British veterans of the First World War were still alive. From earliest memories up to the end of the second year of the conflict, this final platoon of "tommies" relate poignant and harrowing stories of their experiences. Alfred Anderson recalls the Christmas truce of 1914 - when soldiers on both sides ceased hostilities - as well as memories of facing the overwhelming German forces as part of the "Old Contemptibles".
Concludes next Tuesday.

2/7. Professor John Hunter has revolutionised the way in which British police forces recover murder victims and exhume bodies. This affecting film finds out why he left the serenity of studying Stone Age settlements on a Scottish isle to take on a harrowing role that has also seen him help the authorities after the massacre in Srebrenica.

DOCUMENTARY OF THE WEEK
ONE life 10.35pm BBC1
Here's a valuable corrective to Waking the Dead and its ilk - a low-key, even dispassionate look at Professor John Hunter, a quietly spoken academic whose work involves exhuming bodies.
There's no Trevor Eve wafting around in a smart overcoat, being melodramatic as his dramatically lit team looks moody. Far from it. When called upon by the police, Professor Hunter dons a white paper suit and, with great delicacy and precision, tracks down and digs up the bodies of victims that have been buried, often in haste, by their killers.
His work also takes him to Bosnia, and the heartbreaking task of emptying the mass graves of the thousands of Bosnian Muslims murdered by Serbs during the1995 Srebrenica Massacre.
John Hunter, by necessity, maintains a professional emotional distance, though he finds solace on a small Scottish island. But, as Duncan Staff's affecting film shows, he's a man who feels things greatly. So greatly that an unexpected tragedy makes him doubt his vocation and ability. AG
