A beetle that can spray a liquid at boiling point; a firefly that lures another down at night and eats it; and a moth that uses its poison in courtship - all are miniature chemists using chemical weaponry to repel their attackers. Grasshopper mice, orb-weaving spiders and scrub jays, all try their skill at countering these chemical defences.
The Scanning Electron Microscope, tiny weights and pulleys, torchlight, high speed film and hours of watching are all used by the ingenious Professor Tom Eisner, to unravel some of the fascinating stories of unseen insect warfare.

A Forty Minutes documentary
Scott is a 16-year-old schoolboy. In breach of our national Prison Rules and European standards, he sits in a cell at Brixton Prison on remand, accused of murder.
During the day he mixes with convicted adults who await transfer to other prisons. No date has been fixed for Scott's trial.
Brixton is our biggest remand prison, and it is in crisis. The
Governor has to accept whoever is sent from the courts: terrorists, routine offenders, the sick, the suicidal or, like Scott, school-boys. Conditions are appalling.
Three sleep in cells designed for one. There are four lavatories for a wing housing more than 300.
Many men spend months there. Some, more than a year. After trial four out of ten are either released or acquitted. Scott has already been in Brixton for five months. *
