The Human Animal
Can man really be compared to other animals? Ants co-operate to form armies and to provide social services for their offspring; baboons experience sexual strife and jealousy; marmots, like humans, can be good or bad parents.
The new science of sociobiology is thoroughly controversial.

The Road to Rock 'n' Roll
Rock 'n' Roll was an All-American phenomenon akin to ragtime, jazz and swing. It depended on the same vital raw element, and on the alertness of a new set of entrepreneurs. A disc jockey christened it in 1952. In 1956 ' Rock around the Clock' exploded on Britain. In 1964 a group of young English musicians took America by storm. The American background was filmed in New York and the Deep South. Those appearing include hillbillies, bluesmen, churchmen, radio men, rockabilly Charlie Feathers and record producers Jerry Wexler and Sam Phillips -the man who discovered
Elvis Presley.

Tonight from BBC Scotland Current Account on The Scottish Connection
What kind of support is going from Scotland to paramilitary groups in Northern Ireland?
The links between the two countries have existed for centuries. But they have never been more apparent than in the last eight agonised years of the province's troubles. Now there is a convincing body of evidence that the exchanges in recent years have amounted to more than just expressions of friendship and marching side-by-side in traditional parades.
Brian Barr and Jeremy Paxman investigate The Scottish Connection
