The Great Encounter
When English colonists arrived on the shores of their
'New World', they set about the God-given task to 'subdue the earth and till the soil'.
They founded Jamestown on the great Bay of Chesapeake. Yet, surrounded by the natural wealth of the most prolific estuary in North
America, the English starved to death. Inland lay the 'endless forest' - home to the Cherokee who like all other tribes had a very different view of wilderness and wildlife. This land did not belong to them; they belonged to the land. Now their world would change. Narrated by Alan Ereira. Music MARTIN KISZKO
Produced by STEVE NICHOLLS and PETER CRAWFORD BBC Bristol

A six-part documentary series by Anthony Sampson. 6: The Price of Greed
Why is it that our world, which reaches an indulgent climax of spending and consuming at Christmas, cannot afford to provide the most basic needs to the poorest half of mankind?
Anthony Sampson looks at what has gone wrong with attempts to provide aid to poor countries. He discovers how even the most hopeful cases, like Ghana, can quickly become 'unbankable' in the world's financial markets.
In the end, will the poorest countries in our world simply 'drop out' of the global system? Or is there a solution which works to the advantage of both rich and poor countries alike? Cameraman MICHAEL MILES Series producer MICK CSAKY
