by JONATHAN MILLER Heart of the Matter
William Harvey 's discovery of the circulation of the blood was one ot the great scientific achievements, and tonight's programme celebrates this.
Starting with a patient suffering from a mysterious heart murmur from a faulty heart valve, Jonathan Miller traces the developments in our understanding of the heart. He argues that Harvey s original insight is almost all we need to understand most modern heart surgery. The programme includes several of Harvey's original experiments, and a visit to the Anatomy Theatre in Padua where he studied.
Implicit throughout the programme was the idea of the body as a machine for living ... For the first time in many years of squeamish experience as a viewer, I found I could keep my eyes open as the blood flowed.

at John Packer 's Big Night
John Packer is the manager of a small firm manufacturing expensive fabrics in the lowlands of Scotland-but the way he shows his wares to the world is, to say the least, spectacular. This summer he hired the Palace of Schleissheim in Munich, and filled it with music, food, champagne and fashion. He manages the entire proceedings himself.
Russell Harty watches the build-up to the evening, and the way this determined and precise impresario makes sure that the wine is at the right temperature and cuckoos sing on time.
