Dieppe, France, with Geoff Hamilton , Roy Lancaster A garden built round architecture by Sir Edwin Lutyens suggests largely irrelevant grandeur. But the house is full of jokes, and the garden abounds in good ideas, splendid plants, and problems every gardener experiences.

The Chicken Factory
We all depend on services few of us would want to provide. This series looks at these 'secret services' - and the people who provide them in the face of ignorance, suspicion or distaste.
The chickens you buy in your supermarket live for only 49 days. Tonight's film goes inside a chicken factory, where 100,000 chickens are slaughtered and packed every day. Society may need rising food production for its rising population. But what's it like to service, day in, day out, the machinery of death? Photography PAUL OTTER
