High in the Peruvian Andes, the remote Cusichaca valley lies at the heart of the ancient Inca empire.
Dr Ann Kendall , the driving force behind the Cusichaca research project which has been working in the valley for six years, has set out to test the idea that the original Inca fields and canals can be made to flourish again after five centuries of decay.

A series of seven films in which people can let off steam, grind their axe or simply have a chuckle.
A highly successful yet totally untrained artist, Beryl Cook only started painting in her late 30s. Her subjects are mostly women, usually middle-aged and nearly always enjoying themselves. Plymouth, where she lives provides the setting for many of her pictures.
'When I'm out I may see something I love. Then I nearly always know I'm coming back to paint it. I don't think there can be any message in that.'
A series of 13 programmes which tell the story of the theatre. Written and presented by Ronald Harwood 4: Mysteries
Europe around AD 500 - the Dark Ages. Organised theatrical life had crumbled with the Roman Empire. Europe was Christian but the great mass of people were illiterate. The story of Christ had to be made intelligible to them, so Mystery or Miracle plays evolved.
This programme shows how the theatre once more became part of people s lives, with a special reconstruction of The Harrowing of Hell in Sussex, the 1980 York Mystery Cycle which the people of York still perform every four years, and another form of street drama in Italy, commedia dell'arte. Those taking part include:
Michael Elphick , Paul Copley
Ian Saynor , Christopher Timothy Patrick Garland , Eileen Atkins and the Co-Operative Autori of Venice

opens a major season of films new to television starring Edward Woodward Jack Thompson
At the height of the Boer War three members of the Bushveldt Carbineers are court-martialled on charges of murdering Boer prisoners and a German missionary. The action-designed to make them an 'example' - is politically motivated and the proceedings strongly in favour of the prosecution ... This gripping story of injustice proved one of the most powerful and successful of all recent Australian movies.
