The inside story of Greenpeace's dramatic battle with Shell Oil and the British Government last summer over the fate of the Brent Spar oil platform. The giant multinational's decision to dump the platform on the sea bed led to widespread protests and brought forth condemnation from European leaders. Shell products were boycotted and some of theirgarages attacked. With previously unseen footage and the testimony of key participants on both sides, the programme charts the course of the showdown between campaigners and the oil industry.
Greenpeace may have won the battle but has the environmental watchdog won the war? John McGhie reports.

A series of five programmes that draws on the testimony of leaders and participants from all sides of the bloodiest conflict in Europe since the Second World War to make sense of today's news from Bosnia, Serbia and Croatia by telling the story of how Yugoslavia came to fall apart.
Enter Nationalism. The violent collapse of Yugoslavia began in April 1987 when Serbia's then-president, Ivan Stambolic , sent his deputy,
Slobodan Milosevic , to Kosovo, a poor region in Serbia, to calm an ethnic conflict that was threatening.
In this first programme, President
Milosevic of Serbia and his inner circle describe how he betrayed his political patron, seized absolute power in Serbia and unleashed the nationalism that shook the foundations upon which Yugoslavia had been built.
Director Michael Simkin ; Producer Norma Percy

Urban parable of romance and redemption, continuing the New York Stories season.

Mercedes Ruehl
Jack Lucas is a hugely successful but vituperative radio phone-in host. A typically reckless remark over the airwaves seems to be the trigger for one of his listeners to perpetrate a random massacre at a fashionable Manhattan bar. Lucas goes into an alcoholic decline, taking his career with him. But a chance encounter with a mystical vagrant seems to offer him an opportunity for atonement. The film features an Oscar-winning performance from Mercedes Ruehl.
Director Terry Gilliam
The New York Stories season continues next Saturday with Do the Right Thing.
