Title:
Speeches that Shook the World
Description: Examining
the speeches that provoked radical change,
surprised pundits or shocked listeners, Simon Armitage
dissects what makes a perfect speech. He gets the inside
story behind some of the famous speeches of the modern age,
talking to Tony Blair's speechwriter, to Earl Spencer on his
address at his sister's funeral and the woman who challenged
the
Hackney rioters. We hear how Peter Tatchell confronted
the BNP, Paul Boateng on how Enoch
Powell's divisive speech
affected him as a child, and Colonel Tim Collins, whose
charge was to motivate his troops on the eve of the Iraq
war.
Simon discusses the nuts and bolts of speech writing
with
Vincent Franklin (aka Stuart Pearson from The Thick of
It)
and gets tips on powerful delivery from actor Charles
Dance. Looking at both contemporary speeches and the
classics - Churchill, Martin Luther
King, Emmeline Pankhurst
-
Simon explores whether it is carefully-wrought rhetoric, a
well-argued stance or a bombastic delivery that wins over an
audience

Title:
Don't Panic - The Truth About Population
Description:
Using state of the art 3D graphics and the timing of a
stand-up comedian, statistician
Professor Hans Rosling
presents a spectacular portrait of our rapidly changing
world. With 7 billion people already on our planet we often
look
to the future with dread, but Rosling's message is
surprisingly upbeat. Almost unnoticed we have actually begun
to
conquer the problems of rapid population growth and
extreme poverty. Across the world, even in countries like
Bangladesh, families of just two
children are now the norm -
meaning that within a few generations the population
explosion will be over. A smaller proportion of people now
live
in extreme poverty than ever before in human history
and
the UN has set a target of eradicating it altogether
within a few decades. Rosling presents a statistical
tour-de-force, including his 'ignorance survey' which
demonstrates how British university
graduates would be
outperformed by chimpanzees in a test of knowledge about
developing countries.
