The Underwater World of Al Giddings
Most people are content to watch sharks from the safety of the cinema or television - Al Giddings, underwater photographer extraordinary, prefers to film them live. The programme looks at some of Al's most astonishing work, from diving under the North Pole to swimming with whales in Hawaii; from hand-feeding sharks in the Maldives to filming the skeletons of sailors in the wrecks of the Japanese fleet in Truk Lagoon. The World About Us team followed Al from San Francisco to South Australia where he was filming the great white shark for a seven million dollar Disney Circle vision project. The great white shark was the star for Jaws - this time it was for real. Narrator Robert Powell

Eight films on modern art and a century of change.
Robert Hughes looks at the past 100 years through the lens of its art, from the Impressionists to the present day.
1: The Mechanical Paradise
In 1913 a French writer remarked ' the world has changed less since the time of Jesus Christ than it has in the last 30 years'. This was a widespread feeling. Rapid advances in science and technology radically changed man's view of himself and the world in which he lived. And artists responded with radical new approaches to the new world.
This film shows the optimism with which people in general, and artists in particular, reacted to the machine age.
Written and presented by ROBERT HUGHES
Hughes has gone a long way towards restoring to television the combination of wide knowledge and natural eloquence that has not been seen and heard on this subject since Lord Clark retired from the screen. (OBSERVER) Film editor MARTIN CRUMP

A World About Us Special
Last week the series reported on the war in Afghanistan as seen by the euerrilla fighters, the Mujahidin. Tonight the other side of the war.
Ever since the Russians invaded
Afghanistan more than three years aeo Kabul has guarded its secrets closely. Recently the Communist government allowed Paris-based cameraman Eric Durschmied to spend five weeks there. His movements were monitored, his viaeotapes censored. Yet he has emerged with a unique view of the military and propaganda war against the Muslim Resistance Fighters.
Durschmied witnessed tribal leaders pledging their guns allegiance for £40 a month; the show trial of a French doctor captured with resistance fighters, and the conditioning of Afghan conscripts in both body and mind, to fight against their brothers in the mountains.
