    Wim Wenders' recording of the Cuban all-stars band helped introduce the world to these consummately gifted and charismatic performers. In 1996, Ry Cooder helped bring together a group of legendary Cuban musicians under the banner of Buena Vista Social Club, the name of a popular 1940s members bar in the Buenavista quarter of Havana. Amongst the performers were guitarist and singer Compay Segundo, pianist Rúben Gonzalez, singer Ibrahim Ferrer, singer and guitarist Eliades Ochoa and singer Omara Portuondo. Their eponymous album, released in 1997, was a huge hit. On the announcement of a world tour, Wenders joined the band, recording them in concert. Cooder had previously worked with Wenders on the evocative score for the director's 1984 road movie Paris, Texas. Here, Wenders intersperses his record of the concerts with personal reminiscences by the band of their early years as musicians and performers in Batistsa's pre-revolutionary Cuba and what life was like under Castro's regime. What emerges is a riveting combination of music by a veteran band still at the top of their game and a fascinating personal insight into the history of a country.

    Wilhelm Hammershoi Anne Redpath and the four men known as the Scottish Colourists share one thing. None is as well- known as they deserve to be. What drew me to them all was my admiration and delight in their superb control of colour and their ability to use it to create a dazzling array of moods. There is an air of quiet confidence in all these artists and a determination to produce something fresh and original. They knew what they wanted and they knew it had to be special. They play with light and colour in different ways but always with consummate technical skill making each picture an eye-opener. In these films I've tried to bring their work and their times to life. And to leave audiences wondering why they hadn't heard more about these remarkable talents. All three films are the result of a long and fruitful relationship with BBC Scotland and in particular producer Mhairi McNeill and director Eleanor Yule who first put me on the road to arts documentaries and have been a constant support and inspiration ever since.

In Bristol in The Royal Mail with 3 000 staff Gareth finds that an ever-changing work environment leads to dissent but also to a special kind of unity. Landing at Manchester Airport Gareth finds that divisions between landside and airside allows him to bring workers together like never before uncovering voices that are ready to take flight. And finally Gareth is sent to Coventry where he will draw on the 5 000 staff at Severn Trent Water from office staff to work gangs in search of a choir that can perform at competition level.

    Meet Big and Little Edie Beale: mother and daughter, high-society dropouts, and reclusive cousins of Jackie Onassis.

This special edition also features the 2006 follow-up to the film, The Beales of Grey Gardens, constructed from hours of extra footage in the filmmakers' vaults.
