A series of six programmes in connection with the current Exhibition of Gold and Silver from
AD 300-700 at the British Museum.
2: Articles of Faith
In AD 300, Christianity was just one among many Roman religious cults. Soon after, Constantine the Great brought it into special favour, and by 700 it had become the uncontested faith of the Byzantine Empire - but had found a new opponent in the Middle East.

A Yesterday's Witness series of six programmes with women of the First World War.
2: Down on the Farm
' Weeds, like U Boats, must be exterminated' says one of the more gentle captions in a remarkable recruiting film made in 1917 to try to persuade the women of Britain to join the Women's Land Army.
In this programme, scenes from that propaganda film give us the official version of what life was like down on the farm during the Great War. But six of the original Land Girls themselves tell us what it was really like to leave home or escape from the slavery of domestic service - and then be confronted by the glamour of the pigsty and the milking shed.
