A re-creation of Wainwright's 40-year love affair with Scotland.
When Wainwright achieved his ambition of climbing Ben Nevis, he saw no one, either in the Allt a' Mhuilinn or on the summit of the Ben itself.
Now - 30 years later - AW has to be content with viewing 'the highest and mightiest Munro' from the glen at its foot. For someone who enjoys exploring every corner of a landscape this is no hardship, but Wainwright also insists on revisiting the other jewels of the Western Highlands - the lonely silence found in Glen Dessarry, the bare wastes of Rannoch Moor, and the sombre beauty found in Scotland's most famous glen - Glen Coe.

The last in a series of five films in which Russell Harty makes a thoroughly modern journey following in the footsteps of the 18th-century travellers in order to further his education and have a pleasurable time. Part Five
In which he survives the Palio in Siena; he follows in the footsteps of St Francis and bumps into Sting; he gets to the front row of the audience for an Audience; he makes a sentimental journey to Capri; his Grand Tour ends with a bang.

DAVID VINE presents further coverage of the mid-session matches.
If it hasn't been won already, top prize for the maximum break in Sheffield is worth E90,000 - and that's only E5,000 short of what the world champion will collect for the title!
Further coverage of the mid-session matches are likely to involve STEVE DAVIS on one table and WILLIE THORNE on the other, or perhaps TERRY GRIFFITHS ?
A portrait of an island continent in six episodes narrated by Robyn Williams 2: Seas under Capricorn
Dazzling tropical reef fish and fur seals with their roots in Antarctica are both ingredients of Australia's marine heritage.
For millions of years the continent has inched up from southern polar latitudes into the tropics, deflecting the circulation of the southern seas. Australia's treasure trove of marine creatures includes the astonishing leafy dragon, the great white shark, fish that cultivate seaweed, thousands of green turtles and billions of coral polyps which suffer mass sexual lunacy each year.
