How 1,000 people worked round the clock to build two houses in three days. Rick Ball tells the challenging story of a man with a vision and a woman with a cause who joined forces to provide homes for two needy families. In scenes reminiscent of the film Witness hundreds of craftsmen raise the frames on two houses locked together not with screws and nails, but by superb carpentry, muscle-power and determination. In Pennsylvania the powerful combination of craft skills and community spirit fulfils the dreams of both the Timber Framers Guild and the volunteer army of Habitat for Humanity.

Europe's towns and cities are being transformed. This series of films, each made by a different European country, profiles six very different architects who are contributing to the look of the new Europe.
Denmark: Henning Larsen. When Larsen won an international competition for the new opera house in Compton Verney ,
Warwickshire, he was almost unknown in this country. But his design of the truly spectacular Ministry of Foreign Affairs at
Riyadh in Saudi Arabia has been described as a masterpiece and a turning point in 20th-century architecture. His libraries, schools and university buildings in Scandinavia had already shown him to be one of Europe's most confident and inventive designers and a grandmaster in the use of light. Narrated by Patrick Malahide. Director Pi Michael
