Dr Janina Ramirez unlocks the secrets of illuminated manuscripts that were custom-made for kings and explores the medieval world they reveal. Part 1: Ruling by the Book Janina begins her journey with the first Anglo-Saxon rulers to create a united England, encountering books in the British Library's Royal manuscripts collection which are over a thousand years old and a royal family tree which is five metres long. Janina finds out about a king who had a reputation for chasing nuns and reads a book created as a wedding gift for a ten-year-old prince. She roams from Westminster Abbey to other ancient English spiritual sites such as Winchester, St Albans and Malmesbury, and sees for herself how animal skins can be transformed into the finest vellum. Part 2: What a King Should Know Janina shows how medieval manuscripts gave power to the king and united the kingdom in an age of plague, warfare and rebellion, discovers that Edward III used the manuscripts he read as a boy to prepare him for his great victory at the battle of Crecy and reveals how a vigorous new national identity bloomed during the 100 Years War with France. In the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection Dr Ramirez finds out that magnificent manuscripts like the Bedford Hours, taken as war booty from the French royal family, were adapted for the education of English princes. She also explores how knowledge spread through a new form of book - the encyclopaedia. Part 3: Libraries Gave Us Power The story of the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection reaches its end with the last great flowering of illumination, in the magnificent courts of the Tudors. She investigates astrological texts created for Henry VII, and unwraps his will - still in its original, extravagantly-decorated velvet and gold cover. She hears music written for Henry VIII, which went unperformed for centuries| and reads love notes between the king and Anne Boleyn, written in the margins of a prayer book. Nina also visits Bruges, the source of many of the greatest manuscripts, where this medieval art form collided with the artistic innovations of the Renaissance. （转自mvgroup论坛）。《妈妈的手套》讲述了一个发生在山乡一群留守儿童之间的情感故事。村里留守儿童华子是包括胖大海在内的一群留守儿童的孩子头，而在父辈们打工的城市里，胖大海他爸是华子爸的头——包工头。 华子和妹妹秀秀快三年没见到在城里打工的爸妈了，与奶奶和婶子生活。秀秀的性格有些孤僻，华子对她最好，妈妈留下来的一双手套也是紧着秀秀戴。华子和秀秀每月定期到村头小卖店等妈妈的电话。可两个孩子并不知道，他们的妈妈已经在两年前在打工地不幸意外去世了，每次打来的电话都是妈妈的一位好姐妹为了瞒着两个孩子所做的善意之举。在小卖店，华子遇到了从城里来山村学校支教的大学生何非。何非在与华子父母打工地联系时得知华子的妈妈已经不在人世后，更加同情和疼爱华子和秀秀，在学习和生活中给兄妹俩更多的关爱。 一天，华子和胖大海淘气被老师留堂，秀秀苦等不见哥哥踪影，来到教师办公室寻找哥哥，年幼的她一下子就看...。《秘密花园》根据同名韩剧改编，讲述男主角金洙元是一位挑剔的企业家，他和一直梦想成为动作导演的女主角吉罗琳逢见必吵，二人在一个秘密花园中意外交换灵魂，开始用对方的身体体验不一样的人生。在无法摆脱对方的同时两人渐渐萌生爱情，引发了一个浪漫的爱情故事。。
