This listing contains language that some may find offensive.

An animated version of the fairy-tale by OSCAR WILDE. Every afternoon, as they returned from school, the children used to go and play in the giant's beautiful garden until, one day, the giant came back and built a high wall all round the garden and put up a noticeboard saying 'Trespassers will Be Prosecuted'.

The Trail-Blazers
Six films of early exploration introduced from the Royal
Geographical Society by the pioneer polar explorer Duncan Carse.
4: Across the World by Zeppelin (1924)
Four times the Zeppelin circled the city, agleam in the sun like a cigar of silver. 'Gentlemen,' said her commander, 'we have achieved a world record - 5,000 miles of continuous flight in just 81 hours!'
A moment of triumph in the skies over New York on 15 October 1924.
But just how the first postwar German Zeppelin came to be built at all is an almost untold chapter in airship history. For at the end of the First World War Zeppelin building was banned, all airship sheds and gas plants were to be demolished ... This is the story of how a great 660-foot airship was eventually built, tested and flown non-stop from
Germany to America - a tale of outstanding aerial trail-blazing.

That's Entertainment, Chinese Style!
If Chinese entertainment conjures up for you pictures of acrobats and revolutionary operas, you're in for a surprise. Tonight you can join 300 million Chinese viewers and find out what the largest TV audience in the world really enjoys.
It's not very different from everybody else. There are beautiful girls, top of the pops, sports quizzes, a family singing contest, comedy sitcoms and gripping drama on familiar themes like crime and divorce. What is different is that it reveals a side of Chinese life rarely seen before and, with it, a chance to understand what makes a quarter of the world's population tick.
