Presenter Fisher Dilke explains the controversial Bayes' theorem, a probability equation devised by 18th-century cleric the Rev Thomas Bayes, which seems to fly in the face of common sense. In contrast to its mathematical rivals, it is subjective.
It can be applied with far-reaching implications to such areas as medical science, weapons technology and even the administration of justice. Last year the defence in a rape trial employed Bayesian statistics to question the prosecution's DNA evidence which had only a one-in-200 million chance of being wrong.

Concluding part of the drama tracing the life of the surgeon Dr Norman Bethune, who by his death at the age of 40 had become a hero in China.
Starring Donald Sutherland, Helen Mirren

In Spain in 1936, while assisting the Republican cause during the Spanish Civil War, Dr Bethune used innovative medical techniques, including performing the first blood transfusions in combat. But it was in China that he did his greatest work as he lent his skills to Mao's struggle against the Japanese.
