Tonight's programme features the work of three painters. In unique film of Stanley Spencer (1891-1959) at work, he describes the meaning of the supernatural events he painted in one of his most memorable pictures, The Resurrection in Cookham

Graham Sutherland (1903-80), best known for his portraits of the famous, such as Winston Churchill and Somerset Maugham, and for his great tapestry design for Coventry Cathedral, began as a landscape artist. In sequences, shot between 1953 and 1979, he draws, paints, and talks about the elements that are constant in all his work.

A six-part series, from source to sea, about China's most violent river - and the cradle of its early civilisations. 1: Nomads
The river rises on the remote plateaux of Asia. Here, where the summers are very short and the wind blows almost incessantly, lives one of the most interesting of all
China's many 'minority' peoples - the Tibetan nomads. These are a people who ask very little of the rest of the world, and on whom the philosophies of the central government in faraway
Peking have very little effect. Written and narrated by Stephen Jessel , BBC China correspondent from 1981-4.
