The fifth of eight programmes presented by Fred Housego
Few people driving up the M1 realise that this is a route used by travellers since prehistoric times. Within a few yards of the service station at Watford Gap there is a Roman road, an 18th-century canal, a 19th-century railway and a 20th-century motorway.
Guided by Christopher Taylor, Fred Housego discovers that our landscape conceals many clues to a rich and varied past.
A series of seven films Japan and the Legacy of the Samurai
Narrated by Julian Pettifer
In the 1860s Japan's feudal system was abolished, and with it the privileged class of samurai. But samurai families remain to this day, and the samurai virtues of dignified restraint, coupled with a capacity for vigorous and single-minded action lie at the heart of many a business transaction.

Burgled
Burglary is Britain's fastest growing industry. Last year one house in 15 was ' done In two years burglaries have increased from 700 to over 900 per day. Of those, only 100 will ever be cleared up. It's a crime that pays. There are no overheads, no tax, and only a one-in-ten chance of being caught. The incidents in this documentary film were recorded in Richmond upon Thames, an affluent suburb of London, over a period of only three days. As a variation to the sickening staple fare of breaking, entering and stealing, an old-age pensioner is robbed by con-men posing as Post Office engineers; a new kitchen and bathroom are hammered to smithereens - and a thief is actually caught. He is young, unemployed and pleads guilty to 136 offences committed in a mere 150 days.
The jail sentence he receives may do more harm than good. Meanwhile, the only sure way to beat the burglar in Richmond is to live in a state of siege or give up possessions altogether.
