The BBC2 Classic Serial Dramatised in five parts by KEN TAYLOR : part 4
A seven-part series based on the life of the famous naturalist.
4: Can any mountains, any continent, withstand such waste?
In September 1833 Darwin set out to cross the Argentine pampas, heading for Buenos Aires. Immediately he found himself in the midst of a bitter struggle between the local Indians and the forces of General Rosas, who were engaged in a policy of extermination. ' I was made vividly aware of the relentless struggle for existence going on around me. Who would have believed, in a Christian country, that such atrocities could be committed? '

This week: The Baby Business
'This was the only way we could get children - and we would gladly pay twice as much.' So say one American couple who, after ten years of trying to adopt through registered agencies, finally turned to a 'baby-broking' lawyer and bought a boy and girl for $16,000.
Jeanne la Chard talks to girls who supply the baby market, couples who have bought babies, surrogate mothers who conceive born-to-order children, and the middle men - the baby-brokers. And the problem is not confined to America - it exists in this country too.
for the BBC2 Trophy Hull KR v Widnes
In this last quarter-final Hull KR, the holders of the Floodlit Trophy, meet Widnes, the League Champions, in what should be a classic match. Hull KR are having a great season under the guidance of GB captain Roger Millward, who showed his class against Halifax in the last round.
Widnes have many great players including skipper Reg Bowden and GB winger Stuart Wright, and will be strong opponents, but Hull KR are an extremely difficult side to beat on their home ground. Highlights of the whole match played earlier this evening at Craven Park.
