Whistling and clicking their way around the oceans, dolphins have the scientists baffled with this mysterious underwater 'language.' Jacques Cousteau and his divers go in search of the dolphins, hoping to reveal how they steer by sound and communicate not only with one another but with man as well.
Some of the most dramatic scenes that Cousteau has filmed take place off the African coast, as man and dolphins combine forces and go fishing together.

Andre Watts introduces and plays works by Bernstein, Schubert and Liszt.

At 26, Andre Watts is one of America's foremost young pianists, acclaimed for his virtuoso performances of such formidably difficult works as the Don Juan Fantasy by Liszt included in tonight's programme. In his first appearance on BBCtv he also talks about and plays Liszt's Fountains at the Villa d'Este and the Sonata in A minor, Op 143, by Schubert. Watts made his debut as a 16-year-old soloist under conductor-composer Leonard Bernstein, and he opens this recital with his own ingenious transcription of Bernstein's Candide Overture.
