A story by MURIEL SPARK Read by Gudrun Ure
' Coming to the edge of the lake, we paused to look at our reflections in the water. It was then I recognised her from the past, her face looking up from the lake. She had not stopped talking ... I put on my dark glasses to shield my eyes from the sun and conceal my recognition from her eyes.' Producer STEWART CONN BBC Scotland

All animals, by definition, have common features. So do these indicate that underlying them there is a basic ' dictionary' of genes? There are suggestions that this may be so and that the ' dictionary ' may contain as few as 5,000 genes. Dr Sydney Brenner of the Medical Research Council Molecular Biology Laboratory at Cambridge discusses this hypothesis with John Maddox and also some of the other implications of his efforts to understand the genetic foundation of development.
