During the last few years more and more fields have been turned over to the growing of oil seed rape; highly profitable to the farmers but often cited as being intrusive in the landscape and potentially harmful to other plants. The rape crop's dazzling yellow flowers can be seen all around us now.
This programme won the 1983 Guild of Agricultural Journalists Radio Award.

Jorvik
In 1976 the York
Archaeological Trust began a major excavation under the foundations of a demolished sweet factory in the Coppergate area and there, nine metres below the surface, they discovered the most amazing remains of a Viking settlement.
On 17 May HRH The Prince of Wales will inaugurate the Jorvik Viking Centre and visitors will be able to step back over a thousand years to experience the sights, sounds and smells a Viking would have known as he walked down Coppergate.
Tim Tatton-Brown watched the development of this brilliant new concept in archaeological interpretation.
