Linked to a BBC1 television series, this is an account of sexual reproduction in the animal world, culminating in the question of why there should be sex in the first place the ultimate driving force of evolution, but also selfish, aggressive, competitive, and sometimes fatal. The meeting of mates, the sexual act, and the consequences of producing offspring, forge an alliance between males and females that is rife with tension and distrust. The two sexes tactically play games with each other to get the best return from mating: at stake is the greatest reward for any animal on earth the generation and survival of their progeny. The drive to succeed in this gives rise to a violent, beautiful and spectacular show of animal behaviour, captured here through the book s colour photographs.

Taking on the famous challenge to circumnavigate the globe in less than 80 days, Michael Palin follows in the footsteps of Phileas Fogg, Jules Verne s fictional hero, using the same routes and transport wherever possible, and not allowed the use of air travel. In the modern world, however, air travel has destroyed the scheduled passenger steamer, and decimated the global rail links. Gradually Michael realises that things can only go from good to bad, to impossible.

Antarctica is the wildest, coldest, most isolated continent on Earth. Encrusted in 90% of the world s ice, its 5.4 million square miles are doubled each winter by the freezing of the seas. The average temperature at the South Pole is -56, dropping to -90 and below in mid-winter. Yet this inhospitable landscape is home to a surprisingly rich variety of wildlife. Natural history guru David Attenborough and his camera team spent three years braving mountainous seas, blizzards with 100 mph winds, plummeting temperatures and glaciers the size of cathedrals to capture the majesty of Antarctica both on land and underwater. In this starkly beautiful landscape, they discover penguins by the millions, whales by the thousands, half the world s seal population and seabirds galore.

Red Cap is a British television series produced by Stormy Pictures for the BBC and broadcast on BBC One. Two series of 6 episodes each were produced following a feature length pilot. It featured the investigations (and personal relationships) of an SIB unit of the British Army based in Germany.

Michael Cockerell s three part series, The Secret World of Whitehall is a must see, if only because it is like a TWMFL course (Teaching Whitehall Mandarin as a Foreign Language). It is not just that Senior Civil Servants are, on the face of it Civil but not necessarily Servile during their tenure. It is the case that they appear to remain so long after they have gone. But like all natural diplomats, they have a way of understatement or simply a well timed silence, to import a fairly readable meaning.The programme gives us a picture of the quite different ways in which Whitehall is allowed to operate with a Prime Minister and his advisors, but there are certain non-negotiables. The first is the first hour s briefing with the Cabinet Secretary on national security. One of the first duties, we learn, is that every incoming PM must provide handwritten instructions to the Captains of our Nuclear Submarines, who presumably will only open them in the event of the destruction of the British Government due to all out war. We don t get the details of course, but we do get a peek at COBRA, the situation room that becomes the hub of activity in a crisis.
