5: The Way You Work is The Way You Talk
The language of work provides a vocabulary which often spills outside the narrow confines of an industry. Nowhere is this more true than in fishing. The coble fishermen of Flamborough on the Yorkshire coast and the deep-sea trawlermen of Hull have provided names for sea and land alike. Their language steers between words which reflect their Scandinavian past and those drawn from the new technological hardware of their industry.
Producers JOHN MAPPLEBECK , JOY HATWOOD Editor BILL MORTON
Startling close-ups of some of the incredible, sinister, colourful, grotesque, fantastic, breathtaking, comical, out-of-this-world creatures which live among the coral reefs in the depths of the Red Sea.

Digging with a Camera
On 23 October 1952, a television quiz called Animal, VegetabLe, Mineral? made its first modest appearance. It was an instant success. Archaeology suddenly became emtertainment. The long line of television programmes dealing with archaeology, of which this was the first, were all the creation of one man - Paul Johnstone. Until his death earlier this year he was Executive Producer of Chronicle and head of BBC Television's Archaeology and History Unit.
Tonight Chronicle looks back at nearly 25 years of archaeology on television, culminating in an account of the excavation of the Graveney Boat , Paul Johnstone 's last venture in an area in which he was recognised throughout the academic world as an expert - the archaeology of ships.

The fifth of seven programmes A Queen's Pardon
Two young men have received a Queen's Pardon, after spending years in prison for a crime they did not commit.
Roger Cook discusses with a solicitor, a barrister and the accused the issues raised in last week's Inside Story. What are a citizen's rights in police custody? How do police conduct their interviews at police stations? Why do barristers sometimes advise a man who says he's innocent to plead guilty? What exactly is a Queen's Pardon, when one of the accused is still on the Criminal Register?
Studio director COLIN STRONG Producer TIM KING
