The Orange World of Titan
Titan, Saturn's largest moon, is one of the most remarkable bodies in the Solar System.
With its dense orange clouds and its nitrogen atmosphere, it may have a deep ocean made up of methane, with cliffs of solid methane and a steady drip of methane rain.
Patrick Moore talks about this extraordinary 'Earth in deep freeze'.

Robert Robinson recalls the great Englishman of letters who died last month.
Priestley, born in Bradford in 1894, remained throughout his life the straightforward
Yorkshireman, scourge of the literary establishment and champion of the common man. In the war, his Postscripts on the BBC caught the imagination of the nation. His output was prodigious: 33 novels, 38 plays and hundreds of essays. He said unassumingly of himself: 'I don't have any genius but a hell of a lot of talent'. With Angus Wilson, Malcolm Muggeridge, Michael Foot, Beryl Bainbridge, Malcolm Bradbury and his widow Jacquetta Hawkes.

A film portrait of Derek Bourgeois who has taken over as musical director of the National Youth Orchestra.
From the peaceful solitude of his home in the Wye Valley, he writes music that defies fashion. Not for him the tuneless discord favoured by many of his contemporaries: he prefers melody and rhythm. Photography DAVID SAUNDERS

The happy - if humdrum - marriage of Francin and Marja is shaken into life by the arrival of Francin's brother Pepin, a loud-mouthed live wire who wreaks havoc wherever he goes. To the sensitive Francin, Pepin's idiocies are a torment: to Marja he's a new lease of life.
