A tour of the West Country Burnham-on-Sea, Berrow and Brean
A lighthouse that looks like a bathing hut on stilts, a wreck that is revealed twice a day by the tides, sculptures from
Whitehall Palace and a fort once used by weapons boffins are some of the discoveries made by Angela as she explores this stretch of the Somerset coast. She also makes an attempt at tooling leather and, with justified anxiety, tries some yachting on the sands.

The 1986 Education Act prescribes a greatly increased role for governors in the running of maintained schools. Their responsibilities include selecting staff and having a say in the curriculum and the management of finance. This programme looks at the experiences of a number of parent governors and at the twin problems of parent apathy and the lack of a national programme of governor training. Producer TONY ROBERTS Editor PETER RIDING (e)

Is it murder or mercy when doctors put an end to the lives of suffering patients?
The law says it's a crime, but doctors and anguished relatives secretly break the law out of compassion. In
Holland the authorities allow death to be medically assisted. Could it, should it, happen here?

The Hermit Kingdom Written and narrated by David Jessel
At the end of the Second
World War, the Allies divided Korea into two, splitting one nation and one culture across the 38th parallel. It has become the tightest, most impenetrable frontier in the world today. The Western press is excluded. Cameraman
Erik Durschmied was granted an unprecedented opportunity to film life in North Korea - a rare look behind this communist curtain.
The people of North Korea live in self-imposed isolation, suspicious of foreign intervention. On the streets of the capital, Pyongyang, you see no cars, no bicycles, few people, only statues of the Great Leader ... the expert in everything.... the towering and legendary figure of Kim II Sung.
