7:12 Being a psychopath and studying them too

Jim Fallon found out he was a psychopath whilst studying psychopaths. Except he's what you'd call a "social" pyschopath, he has a family, and even friends. He describes his younger self  as a class clown, and a catholic boy. But scratching the surface he always knew he was a little different, and those closest to him felt the same.

8:30 Window on the World

Our 'Window On The World' feature tonight  is an affectionate portrait of Elizabeth  Koinange - a woman who lives a short drive outside Nairobi where she celebrated her 117th birthday this year. Her story, and that of her family, is told by Elizabeth's own great-granddaughter. The joy of family life is captured as many generations come together. But it is a short mental journey to the past and more turbulent times when torture and death awaited some Kenyans who opposed British Colonial rule
