The Pied Piper Investigated by Robert Symes
ROBERT BROWNING 'S famous poem about The Pied Piper has three irresistible ingredients: the mysterious stranger with magical music, the loathsome rats, and the vanishing children.
But how true is the story?
Could rats have been lured to their death in the River
Weser? And where might the Piper have taken the little children?
Robert Symes solves the mystery, on the day when Hamelin celebrates what it believes to be the 700th anniversary of the Piper's appearance.

The Journey Man
'I'm probably one of the few
People that can actually enter a room and leave it, and nobody will know that I've been there ... I've probably gone through life expecting to be hit over the head all the tune, but it never happened.' Behind the quiet, gentlemanly exterior of Norman Lewis lies the acute Perception of one of Britain's foremost travel writers and investigative journalists. His fascinating accounts of the cultures of the world cover the Brazilian jungle, the tribes of Indo-China, the villages of Spain and his own eccentric upbringing in Enfield, where his parents ran a Spiritualist church. One of his finest books is Naples '44, describing his experiences as an intelligence officer with the forces that liberated Southern Italy. In tonight's film Lewis returns to this extraordinary region where the ancient Sibyl foretold the fates of emperors and kings, whose local saint can quell the lavas of Vesuvius and where today 600 Mafiosi are on trial. Through Lewis's own idiosyncratic observations, Arena explores the life and work of a very dead-pan Englishman abroad. Filmeditor JULIAN MILLER executive producers
