The Dark Side of the Boom
Japanese cars and television sets, Spanish shoes and Italian refrigerators - they all contribute to Britain's growing import bill. The January trade deficit of £324 million was almost like old times. But with North Sea Oil now on tap, ' Britain in the red' is supposed to be a thing of the past. What's gone wrong?
In The Money Programme James Bellini and Moyra Bremner look at the latest trade figures.

The Hot-Blooded Dinosaurs
A revolution has happened in the world of Dinosaurs. They were not slow-moving cold-blooded reptiles, but agile, intelligent and hot-blooded, like mammals. These are the controversial claims of a group of scientists in tonight's programme.
The controversy has been caused by creatures like deinonychus 'terrible claw', a two-footed terror which attacked feet-first, and stegasaurus, a bizarre creation with its own air-conditioning system. Studies of living animals are providing answers to seemingly impossible questions like how much dinosaurs ate, and how fast they could run.
And there is an answer to the ultimate problem of all: where did dinosaurs go? It's now claimed they didn't all die out. Their descendants are alive and well and living all around us today! Narrator PAUL VAUGHAN
