During the summer, children from abroad bring us memories of the countries they call home. They tell us, too, about the foreign country where they live now - Great Britain.

This week: Henry Higgins - Bullfighter
Four years ago Man Alive made a report about a young English-man living in Spain. Henry Higgins - a bullfighter.
Jeremy James talked to him in his moments of triumph and despair as he struggled against massive and dangerous odds to become a bullfighter whom the Spanish would admire. Now he has succeeded. He has become a matador and a biography has been written about him.
Tonight's Man Alive shows Henry Higgins in his struggle to the top and asks him now whether it was all worthwhile.
with Johnny Morris
From its sources in the Swiss Alps down to the North Sea, Johnny explores the towns and countryside around this great river.
'Switzerland in late summer - there tumbles winter's old snow -the sweat of a mountain. You become so mesmerised by the sensational scenery it's a long time before you realise that there aren't many people about.'

An ex-serviceman, down on his luck, is forced at gunpoint to help a man rob a till. Caught with two dollars, he is sentenced to the nightmare of the chain gang.
The residents on a council estate near Croydon, Surrey, were recently invited by the BBC to make their own TV programme.
They chose as their subject Community and Communications and tonight you can see the result - a programme devised, presented and produced entirely by people from the estate.
