Horizon Season 5 Full Episode Guide

Episode 24 - Phantasmagoria or The Story of the Magic Lantern
Episode 19 - In the Matter of Dr. Alfred Nobel
Episode 13 - Medecine in Russia
First Aired: October. 10,1968

In 1917, Russia had fewer than twenty doctors for every million of her people. Today, the figure is over 2,000: almost twice as many as in this country. The organisational changes that were necessary to build a Health Service in the country with the largest share of the earth's surface were vast. The resulting system is very different from ours.

Episode 3 - Once a Junkie
First Aired: February. 13,1968

In England addicts get their heroin, and often cocaine, on the National Health Service: our system has prevented the growth of a drug-based criminal world, but Americans say that our system only worked when we did not have a serious addiction problem. Now we do. Does our present system make it too easy for the casual drug experimenter to become a hard-core addict? Is there anything we can learn from the American situation?

Episode 1 - An Ingenious Man - Sir H. John Baker
