Five films about Spain
2: Cataluna - a Region Apart
Feelings about devolution run high in Spain: regionalism has always been a source of conflict. Cataluna is a region with a strong tradition of independence: how is it different from the rest of Spain, and why?

Mervyn Jones , Dealer
Mervyn Jones started with horses and caravans and now buys and sells absolutely anything. 'Dealing becomes your night and day. I can't keep money. Money's no good to me. It's goods I need for the excitement of buying and selling.' He works with a Welsh hill farmer -' and two can work better than one; you gang up on the fellow.' He also keeps close contact with gypsies. ' They'll call at 20 or 30 farms in a day. They're like miners, digging away and turning out all the rubbish in the hope of finding a nugget and when they get their nugget I want to be there first to get it off them.' Narrator DERYCK GUYLER

Judge for yourself
I - as the people who make decisions come face-to-face with the people those decisions affect. First the arguments, then your chance to join the debate. It Shouldn't Happen To a Pig
Britain's public health enemy number one is salmonella. It's a source of disease that lurks in most of the meat that we eat, and it's on the increase, because of the way our farming industry is run.
Diseases spread quickly amongst pigs and chickens in factory farms unless huge quantities of drugs are used to keep them at bay. And those diseases increasingly spill over into the human population. So is it time to call a halt? Is it time to choose between cheap meat and safe meat?
