麻豆约拍

Crossing between worlds - in communities across the globe - with dispatches presented by Pascale Harter. Carrie Gracie analyses how China's top echelons responded to the stock-market tumble - or rather, how they didn't; Humphrey Hawksley visits Little Diomede Island in Alaska, just one of many native communities divided by the US / Russian border in the Bering Strait; Hannah McNeish meets a sorcerer who claims he can work electoral magic in Tanzania, and already has several MPs as clients; and David Sillito explores why Sri Lanka's 'coconut gap' - an annual deficit in its most beloved crop - might threaten the taste of home.
