A series of films from all over the world about our astonishing planet and the creatures that live on it

Man has always been intrigued by storks, an extraordinary group of birds including the hammerhead, openbill, marabou, and the grotesque shoebill or whale-headed stork-. The most famous is the cherished white stork, the subject of many legends and fables. Heinz Sielmann's film shows 'A Summer with the Storks' in Germany before they migrate south to pass over Istanbul in one of the most spectacular sights of the bird world.

Norman Del Mar conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra (Leader, Hugh Bean) and talks with John Amis

The better-known Richard Strauss tone poems have been part of the concert repertoire for so long that it comes as a surprise to find that he died less than twenty years ago. Indeed, the composer of Don Juan and Till Eulenspiegel was in London as late as 1947. Tonight's Workshop assembles surely the largest symphony orchestra ever to be in a television studio-over a hundred players-and includes something from all the nine tone poems, the well known and the not so well known. There is unique film of Strauss himself playing the piano and conducting.
