Survival of the Fittest
When Icklingham School in Suffolk closed this summer, the village was angry and upset. But can small rural primary schools, with fewer than 30 children and just two teachers, provide an effective education for today's children?

Narrated by Anthony Quayle Victory Over the Sea
Early in the Second World
War, aircraft began to wrest the traditional control of the sea from the battleship.
Flimsy Swordfish biplanes, launched from Royal Navy aircraft carriers, flew daring torpedo raids which crippled the Italian fleet at Taranto and the giant German battleship, Bismarck. In the Pacific, American and Japanese carrier-borne aircraft attacked each other's fleets. A new warfare had developed. British innovations like the angle-deck allowed faster, heavier jet aircraft to land at sea, leading to the giant American super-carriers of today.
