England v New Zealand from Trent Bridge Fourth day
With PETER WEST
The fourth in a selection from the classic murder mysteries investigated by the philosophical Chinese detective. with Keye Luke
On board a steamship bound for California, a wealthy racehorse owner lies dead, apparently kicked by his horse. But Chan suspects murder and, undaunted by a maze of false clues and the 'assistance' of his number one son (the silver screen's most useless sidekick), he suavely closes in on the villain.

The second of four films with people who live in Britain but have roots abroad. State of Limbo
In 1977 General Zia's military regime took over Pakistan. He promised to go within 90 days. Nine years later he is still there. Once in power Zia's regime had Prime
Minister Bhutto, Pakistan's only elected leader, arrested, tried and hanged. The regime also had hundreds of Bhutto's supporters and activists executed, tortured, jailed and publicly flogged. Now, for hundreds more, exile to
Britain is the only escape.
They find British hospitality much qualified by a colonial past and bureaucratic present. But it is a free country and as one exile said, 'We have to make it home until we can go home.'
This film, marking the 39th anniversary of Pakistan's independence, tells their story of living and campaigning both in Pakistan and Britain.

The Story of Britain's Royal Builders and Collectors Told in ten parts by Huw Weldon
5: The First Three Georges
The Trooping the Colour was first performed, Kew Gardens planted, and the Royal
Academy founded, under the first three Georges.
Encouraged by George I and George II, Handel composed his greatest music, and George III bought more paintings by Canaletto than exist in any private collection. The books that were his passion became the basis of the British Library in the British Museum. The
Gold State Coach in which he rode to open his first
Parliament, the china he collected, and the paintings of Gainsborough, reflect the confidence of the 18th century. Yet across its ordered landscapes hung the shadow of the mob and political rebellion, and for the king, personal tragedy.
Never a dull moment and matched at every point by a wealth of authoritative pictorial material

This two-part film, winner of two Emmys, provides an extraordinary portrait of the mass killer Kenneth Bianchi, an all-American boy who had no memory of strangling 12 young women. The original police videotapes show a mass murderer while he is interviewed by psychiatrists in prison. They discover an astonishing 'dual personality' and diagnose Bianchi insane, but with the arrival of Dr Martin Orne doubts begin to creep in... was Bianchi genuine or had he fooled the eminent psychiatrists?
