Six families and their houses It is not only stately homes which are infused with history, memories, traditions. More ordinary dwellings carry their own stories. 2: The Wookeys
A Bungalow in the Mendips 'It's grown like a child from a baby to a matured dwelling-place.' Austin
Wookey had his asbestos and beaverboard home built on a tree-covered plot in 1927. It's uniquely Wookey in design and layout.
Innovation has never been difficult. The Wookeys were the first in the area to have a flush toilet, picture windows and a two-storey bungalow! Photography REX MAIDMENT Sound DON LEE

As a child Jane Goodall dreamt of going to Africa and living with the animals. In 1960 her dream became reality: she began a study of chimpanzees in Tanzania's Gombe National Park.
Today, more than two decades later, her work still continues, and it has given us a remarkable portrait of the animal most like man.
Spanning three generations of chimps, it shows them in all their moods.... playful infants, turbulent adolescents and adults whose behaviour ranges from tender motherhood to hunting and even murder.
