The recent spectacular exhibition at The British Museum has revealed to over half a million visitors the astonishing wealth and richness of the Viking world. Intricate designs fashioned in gold, silver, bronze and wood by artists of consummate skill was as much a part of the Viking world as the more familiar image of the fearsome helmeted warriors.
The first of two films depicting the variety of Viking art as shown by the treasures of their age, drawn from every corner of the Viking world, together with a glimpse of some of the work from which they drew their inspiration.

Peter Fluck is rector of the biggest Church of England parish group in the country, spreading across 70 square miles of Lincolnshire. It includes ten churches, 16 villages and a population of 700, fewer than lived in one village alone at the turn of the century. Mechanisation has seen the people off the land. The aged remain, and the rich and the high life.

Peter Fluck, a professional soldier before he became a priest, alone now where once there were nine ordained men, makes a resolute and cheerful defence of his far-flung and crumbling outposts.

Science fiction could scarcely have dreamt up anything stranger than the virions. But these invaders are real enough; we have all suffered their attacks. They are the whole family of viruses, from smallpox and rabies down to influenza and the common cold.
Where do the invaders come from; and how do they succeed in taking us over so completely? Why are they so difficult to fight? How is it that we never build up an immunity to 'flu? How do some of the virions manage to hide away in the body, only to re-emerge later? And faced with such subtle and devious attackers, is there anything we can do to resist? Narrator Paul Vaughan
