A series of seven programmes.

Why have tropical fish such fantastic shapes and patterns? Why do some fish swim with their tails, while others use their fins? In this film Hans Hass explains what answers science has to give to these questions and shows you that all forms of life-including our own-originally came from the sea.

A programme about people and God.

Fourteen years ago this month, the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. In tonight's programme Mrs. Junko Kline, a Japanese Christian - a school-girl at the time - who was there on that fateful morning in August 1945, describes her experiences and their sequel. Near Nagasaki, not far away, was a British prisoner of war, who has since become a Methodist Minister, the Rev. Benjamin Drewery. He, too, describes his experiences and their sequel.

Introduced by William Purcell.

(See above)

The English adaptation by Arthur Macrae of Andre Roussin's comedy.
[starring] Paul Daneman, Maxine Audley, Jill Bennett and Brian Oulton.

The scene is set in Paris and London.

Tonight's gay sophisticated comedy comes from the pen of one of France's most successful playwrights of recent years, and has been adapted by Arthur Macrae. It is not only a comedy of sparkling humour, but also a play of surprises which begin in the very first scene and build up with almost bewildering swiftness as the plot develops. To say more would be to destroy a great deal of the enjoyment for those who did not see the stage production at the Aldwych Theatre in 1951.
