Inveraray Castle
By the shore of Loch Fyne , Scotland's first planned burgh was created in the 1740s. It was the brain child of the Third Duke of Argyll. He built a new castle for himself at Inveraray as well. The Duke did not live to see the completion of either, but his successors embellished the home with the outstanding decorations of Robert Mylne , one of the most beautiful features of the Highland 'Versailles'.

118th Open Championship from Royal Troon Golf Club. The sixth championship to be held on these classic links has some great acts to follow. Tom Watson won his fifth title here in 1982 when a young Nick Price dramatically threw it away. Tom Weiskopf overcame foul weather to win his only
British Open in 1973. In the same year, Gene Sarazen holed in one at the eighth. Arnold Palmer was a runaway winner in 1962. Bobby Locke chipped and putted his way to the title in 1950, while in 1923, Britain's Arthur Havers holed from a bunker at the last and beat Walter Hagen by a stroke.

The Shaman and His Apprentice
In a world where there are no hospitals or doctors, the medicine man or shaman cures the sick using purely supernatural powers. Jose is a master shaman of the Yaminahua tribe in the Peruvian Amazon.
His young apprentice Curaka only came into contact with the outside world five years ago, when his group of Yaminahua were decimated by a flu epidemic. 'Just a few of us survived. So now, when Jose has prepared me, I want to learn how to cure.'
But does Curaka have the strength and determination? Anthropolgist GRAHAM TOWNSLEY Photography ANDY JILLINGS Film editor DAI VAUGHAN Director HOWARD REID
