| NEXT PANORAMA - EUROPE OR DIE TRYING - TONIGHT, 14 SEPTEMBER 8.30PM ON BBC ONE
Hi there,
EUROPE OR DIE TRYING
Thousands make the journey across the Sahara to Europe every year, but far from the migrants' dream of a better future the passage can often be deadly.
BBC Panorama's Paul Kenyon takes a 3,000 mile trip across the desert and sea which serves as the most dangerous route out of Africa.
Packed into boats, hiding under trains, perhaps it is no wonder so many die in their attempt to better their lives. But with Europe in recession is the journey even worth it?
Panorama: Europe or Die Trying tonight, BBC One at 8.30pm.
Follow the story of one migrant, Justice, who made it to Naples from where he sent the message home that others shouldn't follow in our audio slideshow on the Panorama website.
BRITAIN'S DIRTY BEACHES
We had a big response following last week's programme about the state of Britain's coastline.
Britain's Dirty Beaches dived below the waves to uncover the true state of Britain's bathing waters. There are approximately 500 Combined Sewage Overflows (CSOs) located near our shorelines spilling sewage along with debris including tampons, condoms and cotton buds. So what is the impact on our beaches?
If you missed the programme you can watch it on the Panorama website.
And if you're worried about your local beach check if it is near a CSO on our online map.
SWINE FLU SPECIAL
With kids back at school, Panorama brings you a one hour special on Swine Flu: Everything You Need To Know.
Jeremy Vine, Sophie Raworth and Fergus Walsh travel around the UK and the world to investigate the myths and true dangers of the first flu pandemic of the 21st century.
Panorama: Swine Flu: Eveything You Need To Know is on BBC One, Wednesday 16 September at 9pm.
You can keep up with Fergus's swine flu updates on his blog, Fergus on Flu, throughout the week.
BACK IN THE NEWS
Last month Panorama's Jane Corbin was in Afghanistan reporting on the lot of women in the lead up to the Presidential elections in What Are We Fighting For?
There she met student Parvez Kambash in the prison where he was being held for downloading an article about women's rights. Given the death penalty, his sentence was commuted to 22 years.
But, he has since been freed, news welcomed by Jane in the Panorama blog.
You can watch Jane's interview with Parvez on the Panorama website.
If you missed What Are We Fighting For? watch it on the Panorama website.
That's all from us for now. Remember, you can keep up to date with Panorama on our website where you can watch Panorama programmes from the last twelve months.
