Donny MacLeod reaches Zagorsk, the heart of the Russian Orthodox Church. It lies 100 miles from Moscow, a fortified cathedral with golden domes which symbolise an older Russia, at odds with the atheistic state. MacLeod joins the thousands of pilgrims, young and old, who've travelled from all over the USSR to attend Communion in the magnificent cathedral. He talks to trainee priests about the conflict between State and Church; and meets an icon painter who works within the cathedral grounds and, ironically, has won a Lenin prize for keeping alive this most ancient of Russian art forms.

A Pattern of Building
Written and presented by Alec Clifton-Taylor
3: Saffron Walden , Essex
'In the hands of an expert you can see how good these patterns can really look,' says ALEC CLIFTON-TAYLOR disarmingly, in front of a wall where he's been trying his hand at pargeting. This is a decorative craft achieved by pressing patterned moulds into wet plaster. It's the Saffron Wald en speciality, seen on many of the town's timber-framed houses and particularly on the Sun Inn. In this friendly little town on the border of East Anglia, brick, tile and timber-frame predominate. Apart from the flint of the church, stone only makes its appearance at the nearby mansion of Audley End, completed in 1621. ' For the grandee who built this prestigious house, it just had to be limestone and nothing else. A colossal piece of extravagance.'
Today Saffron Walden is a town with too many pollarded trees and too much traffic, most of which, says ALEC CLIFTON-TAYLOR , should be ' firmly re-routed '.

The powerful true story of murderer Robert Stroud who, while serving a jail sentence, killed a prison guard and paid the penalty with the most savage sentence the authorities could devise - a lifetime in solitary confinement. Stroud defied the deprivations and through his studies and determination became the world's leading authority on birds - and a nationally known figure whose life changed the laws of America.
