It was October 1941, and the SS English Trader, aground on a sandbank, was being pounded to pieces by tremendous seas. Forty-four men were huddled on the bridge, and they saw a huge wave hit the approaching Cromer lifeboat and sweep half her crew overboard. They knew then that they had little chance of being saved. But this was the legendary Cox'n Henry Blogg of the Cromer lifeboat to the rescue - in the lifeboat that wouldn't give up...

The expedition sets out for its final objective: Ras Degen, 15,158 feet above the sea. The peaks of the High Simien are one of the world's great natural wonders.
The endangered Walia Ibex, filmed for the first time, is found here and nowhere else in the world. The Simien Fox and Gelada Baboon are other unique Ethiopian highland mammals. Within a few years, however, Simien will be ruined unless urgent action is taken.

by William Shakespeare
starring Eileen Atkins as Titania
Ronnie Barker as Bottom
Lynn Redgrave as Helena
Robert Stephens as Oberon
Compared to Peter Brook's production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" for the Royal Shakespeare Company, currently showing in London's West End, tonight's television treatment of Shakespeare's classic comedy of errors - the first production in a new series of Play of the Month - is extremely traditional. Performed in Edwardian costume, the play is set in 1865 and was filmed entirely on location in and around Scotney Castle, a folly set in the Kent countryside outside Tunbridge Wells.
