Made at the behest of the Vaughan Williams Trust, this documentary features specially recorded extracts from all the Symphonies, Job, The Tallis Fantasia, The Lark Ascending, Pilgrim's Progress and Greensleeves, and contains in all over ninety minutes of music with surprising contributions from John Adams, Richard Thompson of Fairport Convention, Neil Tennant of The Pet Shop Boys, Tony Benn, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Michael Tippett, Martin and Eliza Carthy, Mark Anthony Turnage and Harrison Birtwistle.
Tony Palmer writes: "...My intention is not a hagiography. it is simply this: to explode for ever the image of a cuddly old Uncle, endlessly recycling English folk songs, and to awaken the audience to a central figure in our musical heritage who did more for us all than Greensleeves and The Lark Ascending, who deserves his place among the greatest of British composers, the equal of Benjamin Britten and Elgar..."

A new crime wave is stalking the world. Many young girls are being kidnapped and held hostage as the sex slaves of depraved men. Many are murdered, some survive, but few ever tell their story. Now two Russian girls, Lena Simakhina and Katya Martynova, break that silence and tell the story of how they were abducted and held for nearly 4 years as ‘The Slaves in the Cellar’ of a 53 year old factory worker called Viktor Mokhov.
In a 2x3 metre bunker, they survived, gave birth to two children and eventually managed to smuggle out a desperate plea for help. They were finally rescued after 3 years, 8 months and 5 days. Their story is shocking, their courage is inspiring and their recovery is extraordinary.
