Presented by Professor Heinz Wolff
This week's programme starts well but has a rather strange ending. It takes place inside three large cardboard boxes! The teams are attempting to make photograph-in-three-minute machines. Their subject is the studio audience, who are rendered speechless by the quality of the results - well, they say a picture is worth a thousand words. Heinz, on the other hand, is never lost for words, and with the help of an infra-red camera he reveals all.

Tonga
For King and Country
The Kingdom of Tonga won a romantic place in the British imagination 30 years ago when its monarch, Queen Salote, paraded at the coronation of Britain's own Queen in London.
On that day a popular legend was bom: a British daydream of a palm-fringed kingdom where an island people, untouched by progress and materialism, lived in simple harmony under the wise and benevolent rule of the Polynesian Royal Family. But Tonga today - the real Tonga - is a troubled place. Michael Dean examines the tensions and contradictions of this Pacific kingdom. Producer MERATA MITA

A pergola decked in roses, a rockery and a pool with waterfalls - sounds like a big garden, but it's not.
Lys de Bray has managed to fill her small, less than one-sixth of an acre plot with a wide range of different habitats supporting a collection of wild flowers and rare and unusual plants which she uses as a library for her acclaimed botanical illustrations.
