In October 1859 the Royal Charter was nearing the end of a two-month voyage from Australia carrying 500 passengers and a fortune in gold when she was hit by a hurricane and wrecked on the coast of Anglesey. There were 34 survivors. The terrible loss of life and the subsequent attempts to salvage the gold caused the tiny fishing village of Moedfre to become the focus of attention of the whole country.
Nick Hughes has visited Moelfre to piece together the story of the disaster and to discover how it affects the life of the village to this day.

Part 2
Ten years after the axe and the match moved in to devastate the Amazon rain forests, the Brazilian government has realised that it made a mistake. The economic salvation of Brazil does not lie in clearing land for cattle but in using a resource as valuable as oil, and which could with a little care last forever - the trees. In the second of two reports from Brazil Anthony Smith asks scientists. conservationists, and government officials: what should be happening to the forests? Producer GEOFF DEEHAN
