The Chance
Tonight's film, the third in a series of six, is made by a team from the University of Bristol.
Three young people from 'the inner-city' and on the dole find themselves competing with 20 others in a series of exhausting tests organised by an Operation Raleigh selection team; the judges are looking for courage, compatability and a sense of humour - especially when things get tough.
If they pass, they'll get the chance to fly half-way round the world to join an expedition in Australia ... Filmed by KEVIN MCMAHON and CLAIRE ODGERS
Series producer BELINDA ALLEN

Miriam Makeba
South African Singer
Miriam Makeba has been exiled from South Africa for nearly 30 years. During that time she has become the first African singer to establish an international reputation, as well as becoming a potent symbol of the fight against apartheid.
In this film Makeba talks revealingly about her early life in the district now called Soweto and her triumphant debut in the USA in 1960. She describes her involvement in the anti-apartheid movement and her subsequent exile from her homeland. She talks about her deep conviction that one day she will return to live in a de-segregated South Africa.
