:00:28. > :00:31.Now on BBC News it's time for Welcome. We send out correspondent

:00:31. > :00:40.to the knee the best stories from across the globe. In this week's

:00:40. > :00:48.programme: We are one of the first Western journalists to visit his

:00:48. > :00:54.prison in Cuba. Were due shackle someone if they were up... Those

:00:54. > :00:58.are humane restraint. The call of the wild, we investigate whether

:00:58. > :01:04.wolves and bears should be reintroduced in the UK to keep down

:01:04. > :01:10.numbers of other animals. People will not want to have wolves in

:01:10. > :01:18.Wales or in Scotland. I'm not saying they are no danger. But they

:01:18. > :01:24.have been exaggerated. And eight years of an American classic, we

:01:24. > :01:28.investigate whether nostalgia for the drive-in movie still lives on.

:01:28. > :01:32.Never before has so many seen the crowning. The coronation that

:01:32. > :01:39.altered the face of British broadcasting. We look back at the

:01:39. > :01:43.friend, 60 years ago, which changed the nation and the BBC. The camera

:01:43. > :01:47.was up here, above the choir screen because it is from up here but you

:01:47. > :01:52.get the possible -- best possible view of what they called at the

:01:52. > :01:59.Coronation theatre. It is the longest hunger strike in

:01:59. > :02:05.Guantanamo Bay's history. More than 100 detainees, more than half of

:02:05. > :02:11.them, have been refusing food since February. Around 40 Abbey force-fed.

:02:11. > :02:15.It has galvanised criticism on America's human rights records and

:02:15. > :02:20.has left President Obama reaffirm his election pledge to close the

:02:20. > :02:24.facility. But there is still no date as to when it will close. Our

:02:24. > :02:30.reporter is one of the first Western journalist to visit the

:02:30. > :02:33.cancer since the mass protests began. He sent his report.

:02:33. > :02:38.The start of another day at one of the world's most infamous jails,

:02:38. > :02:48.Guantanamo, still here after more than a decade. Inside, no sign of

:02:48. > :02:53.

:02:53. > :02:58.any let up with prisoners locked up for 22 hours a day.. Most are also

:02:58. > :03:03.now on hunger strike. We were shown around by guards who did not want

:03:03. > :03:13.to be identified. It is a place where nothing is quite as it seems.

:03:13. > :03:14.

:03:14. > :03:19.Do you shackle somebody? Those are humane restraints. They looked like

:03:19. > :03:25.shackles. It is a humane restraint. Force-feeding also is a term that

:03:25. > :03:28.is avoided. Instead they call this enteral feeding, inserting a tube

:03:28. > :03:35.through a prisoner's nose and down to their stomach. You call it

:03:35. > :03:42.enteral feeding. Yes.I call it force feeding. It is a bit of

:03:42. > :03:45.semantics. It is a medical procedure. We do this to regular

:03:45. > :03:50.patients in regular hospitals who need to be fed. Call it what you

:03:50. > :03:55.like. 41 detainees are now being fed this way twice a day,

:03:55. > :03:59.restrained in the chair to ensure they survive. It is now a war of

:03:59. > :04:02.wills, defiant detainees met with an equally firm hand. The old

:04:02. > :04:09.privileges of communal living have been withdrawn from all but the

:04:09. > :04:19.most compliant. We would lock them out so we can sanitise and secure

:04:19. > :04:19.

:04:19. > :04:26.those yards. They are making noise about something. Life is not too

:04:27. > :04:32.happy at the moment. At least with one detainee. That is one?It is. I

:04:32. > :04:35.do not know who it is. You are welcome to look into the cell.

:04:35. > :04:39.sense the tensions are high behind the razor wire fences. On this

:04:39. > :04:49.visit, we have been kept well away from the prisoners that are locked

:04:49. > :04:53.

:04:53. > :04:58.up inside, but we have occasionally heard their protests. Why do you

:04:58. > :05:06.think they are on hunger strike? Their initial issues had to do with

:05:06. > :05:12.some changes in camp rules. Their primary issue is they want to go

:05:12. > :05:15.home. No-one here knows how this hunger strike will end. Or whether

:05:15. > :05:25.President Obama will finally be able to deliver on his promise to

:05:25. > :05:26.

:05:26. > :05:31.close down this prison. Imagine a walk in the British

:05:31. > :05:36.countryside any come across a dwarf, a moose, or a bear. Well be his

:05:36. > :05:43.aggressive predators were pretty common in ancient times until human

:05:43. > :05:48.beings can sue predicted extinction in the UK. -- contributed to death.

:05:48. > :05:52.But some are suggesting to bring them back. It involves returning UN

:05:52. > :06:02.productive farmland back to the wild and encouraging nature to take

:06:02. > :06:05.

:06:05. > :06:15.over. To most of us, the upper and moors

:06:15. > :06:23.are Britain at its most majestic. A magnificent natural landscape, one

:06:23. > :06:27.of our nation's last unspoiled all bonuses. But a growing campaign

:06:27. > :06:35.seeks to transform these landscapes forever, turning Britain's more

:06:35. > :06:40.land into this. This process is being called three Wilding, and to

:06:40. > :06:46.let nature take control the landscape. Torn out ancient

:06:46. > :06:54.ecosystems like this one to reassert themselves. Britain's

:06:54. > :06:57.chief of this is this man. The wet winter and here is massive

:06:57. > :07:03.deforestation in the 19th century for lead mining and farming after

:07:03. > :07:09.that. Trees were but read -- were repeatedly cuts and burns. It is a

:07:09. > :07:14.barren landscape. Would she have here is typical of the tapper of

:07:14. > :07:20.the just Jewish -- vegetation that you get all over the world from

:07:20. > :07:25.repeated deforestation. In Britain, we think this is what we want to

:07:25. > :07:30.preserve. In the management plan that they describe trees as

:07:30. > :07:37.undesirable. His example of what needs to happen is woodland like

:07:37. > :07:42.this. 20 years ago, at this was open up more land. Already, we can

:07:42. > :07:47.see this transformation. It was bleak and barren, very little was

:07:47. > :07:51.living here. Now we have the trees, the insects that are coming in, the

:07:51. > :07:57.birds eating the insects, and the story things are beginning to grow.

:07:57. > :08:05.The woodland on the whole is much richer and by a diverse. It has

:08:05. > :08:09.cover which is something bat species need. But creating places

:08:09. > :08:19.like this means making some profound changes to the way land in

:08:19. > :08:20.

:08:20. > :08:26.Britain is managed, starting by getting rid of these animals. He

:08:26. > :08:36.seemed to have a bit of a problem with sheep. They are the white

:08:36. > :08:36.

:08:36. > :08:41.plague of. The shape have been meted out entire ecosystem here.

:08:41. > :08:47.They have reduced it to a bowling green with contours. This was a

:08:47. > :08:51.very rich, abundant ecosystem with a great diversity of species.

:08:51. > :09:01.people are saying you are being naive. Sheaves are here for

:09:01. > :09:06.economic reasons. I understand that. We are paying for it.

:09:06. > :09:12.Not surprisingly, these ideas are proving to be very controversial,

:09:12. > :09:16.especially with those who have most to lose. Like sheep farmers. We are

:09:16. > :09:21.producing food for the population of these tales. No other animal can

:09:21. > :09:26.do that. That is why there are sheep farmers in the hills of Wales.

:09:26. > :09:30.He says if he were to get rid of the ship and reintroduce some of

:09:30. > :09:40.the old trees and stuff they used to grow up there, he would have a

:09:40. > :09:41.

:09:41. > :09:47.much richer ecosystem. population has grown substantially.

:09:47. > :09:53.As farmers, we have a job to feed the ever-increasing population. A

:09:53. > :09:58.lot of these academics, they are very intelligent but they do not

:09:58. > :10:03.have much common sense. They are out of touch. That is coming from a

:10:03. > :10:11.practical farmer. If you try to live in Wales, they could not hack

:10:11. > :10:16.it. We are producing food. irony is, the landscape that he

:10:16. > :10:20.described as a barren desert is actually a nature reserve. It is

:10:20. > :10:28.funded by public money and is regarded by many as one of Wales's

:10:28. > :10:33.jewels. It is standing back and letting something go. This woman is

:10:33. > :10:43.responsible for managing displays. She is the head of the Wildlife

:10:43. > :10:47.Trust. Where are we now? George says we Africa shares in tears as a

:10:47. > :10:52.woodenness. But the real world and has, thousands of years ago, would

:10:52. > :10:57.have looked completely different. We can never go back to what George

:10:57. > :11:01.has been fantasising about. He seemed to be saying that short

:11:01. > :11:05.involves human intervention. George says we can stand back and let the

:11:05. > :11:15.ecosystems to it themselves. That is the traditional view of

:11:15. > :11:15.

:11:15. > :11:21.wild. It is not appropriate to the UK landscape. Why not?Spaces like

:11:21. > :11:26.this play a huge and important function for society. The three let

:11:26. > :11:30.his area go completely back to tree cover, for example, this will dry

:11:30. > :11:35.up. Where will we be? We would not be able to store water. We would

:11:35. > :11:45.not be able to clean water. Stallone will begin to erode.

:11:45. > :11:45.

:11:45. > :12:58.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 72 seconds

:12:58. > :13:03.Carbon will be released into the A similar process is already under

:13:03. > :13:13.way in Britain, not just with walls, but other mammals who have been

:13:13. > :13:15.

:13:15. > :13:20.introduced. I am hoping that we will get something.

:13:21. > :13:25.Not as frightening as wards perhaps, but talk of the reintroduction of

:13:25. > :13:34.beavers has been very controversial. They have already been released in

:13:34. > :13:41.Scotland. But there will be no greedy here. The aim is to provide

:13:41. > :13:51.evidence of the effect they have on the local environment. What I want

:13:51. > :13:52.

:13:52. > :13:56.to see is the restitution of those exciting, dynamic relationships.

:13:56. > :14:02.What about the introduction of dangerous predators? People do not

:14:02. > :14:08.want to have walls here or in Scotland. The danger has been

:14:09. > :14:18.exaggerated. He wants to prompt a national debate about what it is we

:14:18. > :14:26.are trying to conserve. In short, how wild should Britain's

:14:26. > :14:31.Wilderness B? It is as much a part of the US as

:14:31. > :14:36.brokers and fries and apple pie. That great American classic, the

:14:36. > :14:42.drive in, has been celebrating its 80th anniversary. They have

:14:42. > :14:46.provided generations of moviegoers with a unique film experience. The

:14:46. > :14:55.heyday was in the 1950s. Even now, in the days of home cinema and

:14:55. > :15:04.cramped cars, a few still survive. Nothing beats Mr Elder.

:15:04. > :15:09.Passionate nostalgia. The Hyde Park Drive Park in upstate New York Mac.

:15:09. > :15:14.The striving opened in 19 dhoti three. Today, nostalgia is

:15:14. > :15:24.definitely a draw. A grandfather used to take me back when I was my

:15:24. > :15:25.

:15:25. > :15:31.son's age. It is kind of a tradition. It has been immortalised

:15:31. > :15:39.in pop culture. Moviegoers see it as a very American institution.

:15:40. > :15:48.Absolutely. It goes back to brokers, fries and apple pies. Drive-ins

:15:48. > :15:52.took off in post-World War to America. They proliferated rapidly.

:15:52. > :15:57.There was a convergence of social, cultural and technological things

:15:57. > :16:01.that happened. Americans that had new babies, cars, looking for

:16:01. > :16:08.entertainment. They were the perfect blend of that. The routine

:16:08. > :16:17.is always the same. At sundown it is returned. People listen to the

:16:17. > :16:23.soundtrack on the radio. Charles Smith believes the growth in is a

:16:23. > :16:30.bargain. The price of admission is just $9 per passenger. You get a

:16:30. > :16:35.double feature, come and get some food in between. Drive-ins began to

:16:35. > :16:41.decline in the 70s and 80s for a variety of reasons. One of them was

:16:41. > :16:46.the advent of home entertainment. But also, the move to more compact,

:16:46. > :16:51.fuel-efficient vehicles meant going to the drive in in a spacious car

:16:51. > :16:58.was not a comfortable experience. Another concerns that Hollywood

:16:58. > :17:06.studios will no longer sent out their films. Drive-ins are being

:17:06. > :17:14.forced to make expensive upgrades to digital projection models.

:17:14. > :17:18.will no longer be in business that the end of 2013. What may help is

:17:18. > :17:22.that older Americans, driven by nostalgia, are returning to the

:17:22. > :17:30.drive-in. Young people are apparently becoming converted to

:17:30. > :17:37.the experience when they sample it. That could be good for business.

:17:37. > :17:41.From the big screen to the small screen. On the 2nd June, 1953, an

:17:41. > :17:46.estimated 27 million people across Britain crowded around the

:17:46. > :17:50.television sets to watch the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.

:17:50. > :17:55.It was the first time the majority of the nation watched an event live

:17:55. > :17:59.on television. Thousands produced the first television sets to see it.

:17:59. > :18:09.We look back at the event 60 years ago that changed the face of

:18:09. > :18:11.

:18:11. > :18:16.British broadcasting forever. The BBC had never done a greater

:18:16. > :18:20.television broadcast with such a significance for the monarchy and

:18:21. > :18:25.television itself. The pomp and ceremony inside must minster Abbey

:18:25. > :18:35.were extraordinary. Most people had never seen anything like it, even

:18:35. > :18:39.

:18:39. > :18:42.in black and white. You have got that awful union jack outfit on.

:18:42. > :18:45.The whole street gathered for the Coronation broadcast. Nearly 40

:18:45. > :18:49.people clustered around a single set. Among them, these siblings.It

:18:49. > :18:53.was quite unusual to see that. to bring it into your home, really.

:18:53. > :18:59.The man in charge of the TV coverage called the shots from a

:18:59. > :19:04.temporary control room. Today, at the age of 92, he recalls they had

:19:04. > :19:09.to lobby intensely for permission. The Archbishop of Canterbury had

:19:09. > :19:14.opposed the idea of letting the cameras in. The broadcast stretched

:19:14. > :19:24.the BBC's resources to the limit. Every camera was pressed into

:19:24. > :19:24.

:19:24. > :19:29.service. It was always breaking down. We only had 300 feet of cable.

:19:29. > :19:34.If it rained, it nearly always broke down. On the day, I do not

:19:34. > :19:41.know if someone was looking out for us, nothing broke down. And it was

:19:41. > :19:45.raining. There was little space to squeeze in the BBC's cameras. Just

:19:45. > :19:52.five of them. The smallest cameraman was wedged in next to the

:19:52. > :19:55.orchestra. The camera was up here, above the choir screen, because

:19:55. > :20:04.from up here you get the best possible view of what they called

:20:04. > :20:10.the Coronation Theatre, the central area of the Abbey. Our Queen starts

:20:10. > :20:14.her journey from Buckingham Palace... In 1952, Sylvia Peters

:20:14. > :20:22.was a young announcer. She has now recorded the introduction of a

:20:22. > :20:26.digitally remastered version of the coverage. We felt it was history.

:20:26. > :20:29.We were making history. It was wonderful to see a coronation

:20:29. > :20:36.because no-one has actually ever seen the crowning of a monarch

:20:36. > :20:46.before. Much of the success was down to the commentator in the

:20:46. > :20:46.

:20:46. > :20:51.Abbey. The Queen left to the strands of the Land of Hope and

:20:51. > :20:58.Glory. The commentator's rhetoric soared like the Abbey's Gothic

:20:58. > :21:06.Architecture. Never before has so many seen the crowning. Many shared
