Patricia Whelan 's film Here
Comes the Chopper puts the case for keeping Britain's woodlands open to its "owners", the public.
Whelan calls in one of the largest private forest owners in Britain, Sir Marcus Worsley , to support her argument. Although the subject is serious, her film includes poetry and music about trees giving it an almost lyrical feel.
Hers is the first of six programmes made by members of the public on subjects they feel particularly strongly about, from hunting to free festivals. Producer Ray Hough

April 1794:
Georges Danton , the hero of the French Revolution, is imprisoned in a Paris jail, awaiting his morning appointment with La Guillotine. His accusers are so afraid of the strength of his popular support that they have imprisoned a decoy to frustrate any attempt to rescue him. A young guard must decide if his prisoner is the real Danton - and whether it is too risky to help him.
Actor Jack Shepherd and writer Trevor Griffiths , who collaborated on Bill Brand and All Good Men, are reunited for this powerful account of Danton's last hours, 200 years ago.
