David Whiteley investigates the growing use of food handouts. Plus, celebrating pioneering transplant surgeon John Wallwork and the centenary of the first air race around Britain.
Inside Out investigates the increasing use of food handouts. The foodbank in Milton Keynes has seen a surge of almost 80% in demand for packs of food over the past year. Helen McDermott meets the people who run the service and those who need it.
John Wallwork was the first surgeon in the world to perform a triple transplant operation. He retired earlier this year and spoke to Inside Out about a lifetime of medical achievements, and gave exclusive access to follow his final operation at Papworth hospital in Cambridgeshire.
And celebrating 100 years of the great British air race. Just 8 years after the Wright brothers first powered flight - which lasted only 12 seconds - 30 pilots risked their lives in a thousand mile air race around Britain. Archive film shows how experimental their flying machines were - some crashed on take-off. 100 years after the race, replica and original planes took to skies over Bedfordshire to recapture the pioneering spirit of the pioneers of flight.
