The French Connection. The lure of France proved irresistible as 19th-century Scottish painters flocked to Paris to study under the great masters and then headed south to the Mediterranean. The talent was world class - the "Glasgow Boys", the Scottish colourists and Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

Twenty years ago, two Scottish pathologists, Professor Andrew Wyllie and Sir Alastair Currie, came across cases of people whose skin cancer had cured itself. Later, they found patients who had made near-miraculous recoveries from what should have been terminal cancer. The patients had somehow escaped death when their cancer reversed Itself, healing naturally.

These chance cases led Wyllie and Currie to speculate on "programmed cell death", In which they suggest that the recoveries were the result of sick cells killing themselves, the implications of which could revolutionise cancer treatment.

"Sir Alastair Currie died last month, after the filming was completed," says Horizon editor Jana Bennett. "Sadly, he never saw the finished programme."
