Chris Serle discovers some of those glorious golden moments from the largest film and videotape library in the world. Aided by a team of square-eyed researchers, this week he looks at what we all stand up in - the body. There are beautiful 60s bodies from Whicker's World, fashionable bodies from the 30s, and unique footage from original keep fit expert EILEEN FOWLER. Guest Bonnie Langford shows how to move the body on The Hot Shoe Show and looks at Chris moving his in In at the Deep End. There's comedy from The Rag Trade, the best of the 1984 Olympics, even flowerpot bodies from Bill and Ben The Flowerpot Men. All this - plus, the naughty bits from Monty Python's Flying Circus. The best of the Beeb for all the family - the body - it's all yours.

A series about sailing ships and the people who go down to the sea in them. Our Daddy
Alfred John Pengelly , 'AJ' to thousands who know him, has been sailing out of the Cornish port of Looe for more than 60 years, most of them aboard Our Daddy, a sailing lugger built in the 1920s for his father.
Our Daddy is one of the few survivors of a diminished
Cornish fishing fleet and 'AJ' is the last of a family sailing tradition stretching back 200 years.

Kingdom of the Ice Bear
Part 2: The Land of Beyond The Arctic is a land of extremes - the harshest of winters and briefest of summers - yet caribou walk 600 miles to give birth in the snow, and barnacle geese fly 2,000 miles to nest there at the risk of starvation.
Prehistoric-looking musk oxen fight so hard for females that the effort sometimes kills them!
Although always too cold for trees to grow, for just eight weeks the frozen land warms to the midnight sun. Lush vegetation and carpets of glorious flowers transform the vast spaces into breeding grounds for a surprising variety of mammals and birds, and millions of insects. Wildlife lives on the very edge of existence in this land of rare and stunning beauty. Narrator Hywel Bennett Photography HUGH MILES

The third of 12 films about life in the Soviet Union.

Sergei Kuryokhin is a jazz rock musician living in Leningrad. For 18 months the BBC asked for official permission to film Kuryokhin and were repeatedly refused. Finally the producer went in as a tourist with a friend and shot the film on amateur video equipment.
The film follows Kuryokhin as he meets friends, relaxes with his family and rehearses with his big band Popular Mechanics. The band has a large following among the young people of Leningrad despite, or perhaps because of, the fact it is disapproved of by the state authorities. Kuryokhin talks openly about his problems and ambitions and shows that it is possible to live beyond conventional society in the USSR.
