First of an eight-part current affairs magazine series that reflects the lives and experiences of Britain's black population, presented by Rianna Scipio.

Linda Mitchell reports on the plight of nine-year-old Daniel [text removed] who could die from leukaemia because of the difficulty of locating a bone marrow donor. If Daniel was white, he would have a one-in-five chance of finding a donor and fighting off the disease, but because he is black his chances are just one-in-100,000. Health professionals say the problem is that black people are unwilling to join donor registers. The programme investigates, with dramatic results.

Fifth of a six-part series looking at how noted architects can transform neglected and unfashionable areas.

Richard MacCormac is invited to construct a safe play area for five- to seven-year-old children at St Anne's school in London's East End. With a modest budget of £30,000, MacCormac sets to work on an extraordinary playground. The construction horrifies the headteacher at first, but then delights her as she sees the children's reaction.

(The Designs of the Times season continues tomorrow with Building Sights at 10.20pm)
