The Guinea Pig and the Law

Experiments "calculated to inflict pain" is how the law describes scientific experiments on laboratory animals. But the law is now 100 years old and the Home Office is under pressure to change the way it is applied. The number of experiments has increased from 270 to 51 million each year. Almost all are for the benefit of the public -- either to relieve human disease or ensure the safety of drugs or other products. Yet many scientists believe that if the public were better informed they might accept a different balance between animal welfare and human safety.

How are animal experiments carried out in Britain and what would be at risk if they were controlled more strictly?

The last in the present series of investigations into the paranormal. Introduced by Colin Wilson In the Mind's Eye
The mile or so of dockland that borders the Thames from Tower Bridge to the Isle of Dogs attracts ghosts, it seems, as the Tower itself attracts tourists; so it was a good starting-point for an examination of the psychology of ghost stories and the people who believe them. The investigators include a writer, Frank Smyth, and a hypnotist, Dr Ian Fletcher, from the Society for Psychical Research.
Tonight's programme traces the history of one rather unorthodox ghost that has now become part of the folklore of the riverside.
