This week's programme in the series on Man and Science today

'A word is not a crystal, transparent and unchanging. It is the skin of a living thought.'
In this programme a man is given the word Apricots to read. He can describe them, even say he doesn't like them, but can't read the word. What has gone wrong with his mechanisms of speech?
We take speech for granted but the study of language takes us into one of the most mysterious and complex areas ever examined by science.
Parents interviewed in this programme thought children learned to speak by imitation. Can this simple explanation be the answer to such a complex question? To answer this and related questions, Horizon visited Harvard University and MIT and talked to some of the world's leading linguists and psychologists.

The second of six programmes in which Robert Erskine seeks to recapture the life and events of ancient times.

This programme describes the peacetime duties and recreations of a soldier in a Roman Legion - the Third Legion Augusta. Serving the Emperor Trajan, around AD 100, this force controlled the relatively passive province of Numidia, the modern Algeria.
Robert Erskine reveals the character of the Legionary's life in barracks, and then follows him into retirement. The Imperial policy was to settle ex-soldiers in colonies nearby; so that in time of trouble these loyal veterans could be counted on to defend their own property - and thus the Roman frontiers as well - for ever.

This unusual film is a parody of the self-glorifying television autobiography. In it John Fortune conducts a dialogue with his old friend John Wells on the exhilarating omnipresence of Death.
With John Laurie, Peter Powell, Ron Brown, Susan Corrie-Jackson, Anne Leslie
