Inside Out, the series
which gives a compelling and entertaining insight into the unusual aspects
of life in the region, returns to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ ONE West on Monday 10 January.
The investigative team led by Tessa Dunlop are back
to uncover more surprising stories from familiar places across the West.
Tessa says: "We've had a fantastic time making the programmes and we
seem to have tapped into an amazing seam of stories about life in the
West Country. I'm convinced they're the kind of things that people will
still be chatting about at work the next day.
"There's a huge variety of films covering every subject under
the sun - heartache, local history, guilt, celebrity - and that's just
for starters!"
In the opening programme Sir David Attenborough visits
83-year-old folk musician Peter Kennedy from Gloucester.
With more than 50 years of folk customs and traditions captured on
film and sound recordings, Peter boasts one of the country's greatest
film archives.
Sir David Attenborough pays tribute to his unique collection: "There
are all kinds of reasons why I think it's marvellous. It tells you about
your history, your identity. It tells you about past beliefs. It often
speaks the truth in a very poetic way and is often extremely beautiful.
"It's marvellous that there was someone around who cared enough
to do it."
Also in the first programme of the series:

It's four years since Stephen Back from Bishop's Lydeard near Taunton
disappeared leaving behind his family and two children.
His wife believes he's dead but his father continues to search for
him, unable to accept that he would walk out on his children.
Inside Out discovers how the people left behind have been torn apart
in their anguish.
And Tessa Dunlop turns private detective to try and track down the
elusive Bristol street artist Banksy.
Wanted by the police for daubing his work on buildings across the city
and beyond, his subversive attitude towards authority has made him a
hero for some.
The new series of nine Inside Out programmes begins on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ
ONE West, Monday 10 January 2005 at 7.30pm.
