Lambing Time at Hartsop Hall
John Allen , his sons and his dogs go up into the morning mist and, as the sun rises behind Lakeland peaks, his 1300 ewes move down to the valley. The Aliens work a 15-hour day - in silence. ' Lambing time.' they say, ' brings out the best in ewes but not necessarily in people. We say good morning and good night and as little as possible in between.'

The Dead Sea Lives
What does the Dead Sea mean to you? Somewhere you float like a cork? The lowest place on Earth? Site of Sodom and Gomorrah? The Dead Sea has a weird fascination beyond geography and chemistry. It was only in the Middle Ages that the Dead Sea ' died Before that it was a sea of wealth. Today, the Dead Sea is coming alive again. It is prized by its joint owners-Israel and Jordan-but the border that runs right down the middle holds them apart. Horizon travelled to both sides of the border to find the Dead Sea's prizes - algae that form the secret ingredient of lipstick or lemonade; a solar pond to solve Israel's energy crisis; the world's unlikeliest tourist beaches; chemicals galore from modern Sodom. For both Israel and Jordan the Dead Sea is a natural treasure house. Could it even become a focus for peace?
