Luncheon
Lunch in Victorian households was 'an unceremonious and inconsequent meal'. It usually consisted of cold meats and hot dishes that wouldn't spoil if left standing. Ruth Mott makes a galantine, poached eggs on spinach and a gooseberry tart, while Alison makes lunch for the staff - which in large households meant 12 or more people. Mid-morning, Harry Dodson arrives for a cup of tea and chats over old times with Ruth. Peter
Thoday looks at the life of bestselling cookery writer Isabella Beeton.

Beyond the Barbed Wire
Andrew Cooper explores the natural history of Ministry of Defence land. Some of the most beautiful parts of the countryside which are used as battlegrounds are home to many rare and endangered plants and animals. From the wilderness of Dartmoor to an island seabird colony in the sights of the Navy's big guns, some extraordinary wildlife survives. Yet the real surprise is found on an army gunnery range in Dorset, where an unspoilt valley teems with life under the protection of the latest tanks and armoured vehicles.

Dear Radio Times,
I am a senior citizen struggling to make ends meet on a small fixed grin, and am unable to get out of the house these days due to the front door being bricked up by Friends of the Earth. As such I watch a great deal of television and take particular exception to Alexei Sayle's Stuff. If Mr Sayle finds life here so disagreeable, may I suggest he moves to England, where totalitarian government, lack of human rights and a disastrous economy would really give him something to moan about.
Mrs Martina Kalashnikov,
Smolensk.
Alexei Sayle replies: Who gives a damn what you think?
Featuring Alexei Sayle with Angus Deayton, Tony Millan, Jan Ravens, Owen Brenman and Pete Murray.

Major Mary Maniscalco -Theberge is a surgeon in the US Army. To gain experience of treating gunshot wounds she's been posted to a city with the highest murder rate in the USA - Washington DC. America's capital is a battleground for competing drug dealers. The cause of the escalating violence is the new drug crack. Mary has been assigned to a special trauma centre for the seriously injured. It was set up by an Englishman, Dr Howard Champion. Out on the streets federal agents raid crack houses. And a crack dealer shot five times gives an insider's view of Washington's violence.
