Kenworthy's Kenya
Jonathan Kenworthy is a young English sculptor who has gained a world-wide reputation for dramatically combining the very essence of the African environment with the forms of animals and tribes-men.
Narrator DEREK JONES
He stalks his prey with a pen and drawing pad ... recording the struggle for survival on the great plains which appear so quiet but can so suddenly erupt into violence. (DAILY EXPRESS) This is not an arty, highbrow, remote documentary, but a rare and beautiful film. (DAILY MIRROR) ... one of the season's best celebrations of beauty.

Claude Monet
An imaginary autobiography written and produced by JOHN READ
This programme was nominated as one of the best specialised programmes of the year by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts. In it Michael Hordern speaks the imagined thoughts of Monet, based on a close study of his actual statements. The paintings are brought to life by comparison with the actual places where they were done and Monet's studies, his garden and his famous lily pond are shown much as they were when he was still alive.
Stunning has to be the adjective for this beautifully organised tribute.
