In this first programme for 1977 Arthur Billitt and Peter Seabrook lift overwinter crops and prepare the vegetable plot for spring sowing, sow broad beans, peas, parsnips and spinach and look at the condition of the soil to give maximum yield. In the greenhouse they will be sowing summer bedding plants and vegetables and forcing root crops to grow indoors. In the ornamental garden they will be looking at hardy border plants, pruning autumn and winter flowering shrubs and consider filling the gaps left by casualties of drought and frost.

Hunters of the Seal
The Eskimos of Pelly Bay in Northern Canada used to live a harsh life out on the ice. Hunting and catching a seal was a major achievement, cause for celebration and ritual.
Now they are land-based and can catch a seal quickly and easily with a rifle. Their rituals and social structures have been almost destroyed by their new North American lifestyle of aeroplanes, canned food and hierarchical local government. ' All we see are bosses one on top of the other,' they said. But they are fighting back, trying to reintroduce ' the old ways ' into the new system.
