A hard look at the natural world with Michael Buerk and reporters John Howard and Grant Mansfield.
Once Britain was a nation of shopkeepers - is it becoming a nation of garbage collectors?
It's boom time in the waste disposal industry. Last year 80,000 tonnes of other countries' dangerous rubbish were taken in - where there's muck there's a lot of brass. But just how safe is it? Nature reports from the continent where this controversial trade begins and goes to Teesside for a Nature Site Report.

World Professional Snooker Championship
Introduced by David Vine
It's taken six days to sort out the second round contenders - and Neal Foulds should be the last man through tonight. But the second round is already underway. Defending champion Steve Davis plays the opening eight frames of the best-of-25-frame match this evening. Prize money for the losers at this stage steps up to £7,875.

The way we live now Two Sides of a Street with John Pitman
A real life soap opera is unfolding in Cardross Street, west London.
A Royal Ballet star, a man who owns a share in a race horse, and a peer's daughter now live side by side with old folk who have rented their houses all their lives.
Once the street was filled with families. Now it's being taken over and tarted up by the young rich with no children. 'Funeral today - skip tomorrow' is how the locals describe what's happening.
Had they been able to afford it, the old timers could have bought their homes for E200. Now unmodemised two-up two-downs with outside loos are snapped up at £150,000.
'For the old people the street is a way of life,' says the Hon Henrietta Roper-Curzon . 'For us it is just a transitory thing. When they leave it's in a hearse. We leave in the removal van.'
