He creates a dish that conjures up the smells of an English country lane in high summer: rabbit cooked in sparkling gooseberry wine. Also he checks on the quality of school dinners at his old alma mater - Wellington School. After several helpings of chocolate pudding he visits his old chum Gary Rhodes to cook Britain's signature dish, braised oxtail.

Proof of the Pudding
How safe is the food we eat? As we are encouraged to eat more fresh fruit and vegetables, are we being properly protected from the potentially harmful effects of the pesticides that keep them free of disease?
The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, insists that pesticides must be considered innocent until proven guilty. But laboratory testing for pesticides is expensive and uncertain. There is virtually no monitoring of imported fruit and vegetables.
Hugh Prysor-Jones reports on how science is being summoned to support the status quo, giving the benefit of the doubt to pesticides rather than to the nation's health.

A series of 13 programmes presented by Colin Blakemore 4: Rhythms of Life
Dreaming may be the brain's way to clean up its circuitry every night - a jet-lagged Colin Blakemore visits a sleep research laboratory in California and explores the meaning of the dreams he has there, with the help of the noted biologist Francis Crick.
Sleep and dreaming, jet lag, seasonal depression, sex - all are controlled by biological clocks in the brain. For
Mitch Heller , a strap-on version of the part of the brain which controls hormonal rhythms restored his sex-life - and a 'miracle baby' was the result.
