[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]T BBC2 9.00 – 10.00 pm Tribe Last in the Series – Penan – Few tribes are as under the cosh as the nomadic Penan of Borneo. Their whole existence is overshadowed by the work of logging companies who are erasing their habitat, tree trunk by tree grunk. This much we've heard about before: David Attenborough highlighted the loss of Borneo's forests in Saving Planet Earth. But when Parry sees, first hand, what this means to real families whose traditions and folklore are bound up with the landscape and hears their desperate pleas for help, it brings tears to his eyes. It makes for an unusually downbeat episode to end the series, but as always, it's essential viewing.[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]T Channel 4 9.00 – 10.00 pm New Series Meet the Natives 1/3 Channel 4 have arranged for five men from the South Pacific island of Tanna to abandon their penis sheaths and mud hats for a fact finding trip to Britain. The result is a delightful piece of fluffy TV anthropology, the kind of thing that makes you chuckle before it makes you stop and think. What will amaze them most: the clothes, the cars or the food. No, it's the way we keep pigs – where's the fun in artificial insemination? And the visitors are understandably baffled as to why, when rabbits are killed to protect crops, nobody wears rabbit skin coats. The series tries to get a lot of mileage out of the men's bizarre mission to take home Prince Philip, whom they worship as the son of their God. But more fun comes from innocent questions such as “Don't you get bored ironing?”[/FONT]
