The Last Dirty Man by ROD BEACHAM with John Rowe as Michael Jane Knowles as Jane Elizabeth Bell as Beth Jennifer Piercey as The Minister and Jack Carr as Mick
In a society that is being cleansed both physically and morally, the Purifying Factor is all-important. The countryside is the unsafe Outer Perimeter and the City. the only healthy place to live. A young girl dies mysteriously. Somewhere, in the Outer Perimeter, like a figure from mythology, a man exists, who is a cause of Death: The Last Dirty Man.

Themes from the 70s 2: The Last Empire
In a post colonial world, the Soviet Bloc in Eastern Europe is, in a sense, the last empire. But although today's boundaries sprawl well beyond those of its Tsarist predecessors, the Soviet leadership continues to be haunted by the old Russian fear of encirclement from the outside.
Erik de Mauny examines. against the background of recent Soviet activities in Afghanistan, the viability of the last empire in the 80s.

During the Second World War Philip Callahan , a young entomologist, noticed a similarity in the behaviour of male moths seeking a partner, and of aircraft flying in and out of a homing radio beam. From that observation. Dr Callahan, who works at the United States Department of Agriculture in Gainsville. Florida, has built a theory that he believes can explain many aspects of insect behaviour - including the old problem of why moths are attracted to candle flames. He talks to GEOFF WATTS about his ideas. Producer GEOFF DEEHAN

A history in 26 parts in the words of those who have made the history 3: The High Seas
The Elizabethan age Is the first great explosion of British seafaring activity. Its achievements have rightly become legendary, but their reality was far removed from the legends of Westward Ho! and Errol Flynn. In this programme Elizabethan sailors themselves tell us what was achieved and what it cost.
