There's hardly a square foot of land in Britain that somebody doesn't own - and that somebody else hasn't got plans for. Finding room for vital new cities and industries means something has to go - lonely valleys disappear under water, quiet fields under motorways, houses and factories. How much countryside will there be at the end of this century when another 15 million of us have been squashed into it?
From the air, the progress of this new Battle for Britain is even clearer. This film looks at some of the casualties so far. It features a Bird's-Eye View of the 270-mile Pennine Way which passes through much of England's most striking countryside -and through almost every kind of danger that threatens it.
A singer and his songs

Johnny Morris visits some of the islands in the Pacific Ocean
"The very essence of life has found its way into a religion where you sit about and wait... for John Frum."
Here, in the world's only condominium, Johnny explores Vila, the tiny capital. He is made welcome in a native village where he learns about the basic diet, lap-lap, and on the smaller island of Tanna he watches the copra boat being loaded, finds some wild horses, a volcano, and the 'John Frum' village of Sulphur Bay.

[NB this is billed as Part 5 in Radio Times - it was Episode 5 in the original 7-part transmission in 1969]
A series of six films which concentrate on a few hours of intense activity.
On 29 May this year 600 men and women from all over the country gathered in the grounds of Warwick Castle under the banner of the Sealed Knot Society. They had one thing in common, a hobby - the English Civil Wars of the 17th century; and on this particular day, the re-enactment of the Siege of Warwick Castle in 1642. Throughout the day they prepared - and as night fell, school-teachers and dustmen, bricklayers and solicitors, engaged in battle. History was re-written.

'We all live under the haunting fear that something may corrupt the environment to the point where man joins the dinosaurs as an obsolete form of life.' A question of resources?
