1906-1945
In 1939, just before the outbreak of war, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was pressed to stay on in the United States, where he was lecturing. He refused, saying ' I must live through this difficult period of our national history with the Christian people of Germany.' Had he stayed, America might have gained a theologian; but the world would have lost a Christian martyr. On the eve of the 30th anniversary of the death of Bonhoeffer - he was hanged for his opposition to the Nazi regime - Malcolm Muggeridge tells the story of this Lutheran pastor whose prison letters have been read all over the world.

A six-part dramatised documentary series
2: One Man's Property Written and introduced by EVAN JONES
In the 18th century, sugar planters in the West Indies had the power of life or death over their slaves.
But was it lawful for one man to be the property of another on the soil of England? That question had to be decided in 1772 by the Lord Chief Justice in the first great milestone in the fight against slavery - the Somerset Case.
