Destination Moon
Film Intended to be the first realistic film about space exploration, producer George Pal's fun effort was beaten into cinemas by the exploitation quickie Rocketship X-M. But that didn't have an animated lecture on the principles of space travel hosted by Woody Woodpecker! Co-scripted by science fiction great Robert A Heinlein, the pedestrian tale of man's first lunar landing has dated badly, and the corny dialogue uttered by the barely adequate cast doesn't help. Yet the enthralling look, taken straight from the pulp fiction illustrations of the day, is enchanting and colourful and the special effects (which won an Oscar) are impressive for the era.

Cookery School
Food Those of us suffering withdrawal pangs since the end of Lorraine Pascale's Baking Made Easy series will be rattling their cookie cutters and dusting off their food mixers in excitement, because award-winning pâtissier and "cake boy" Eric Lanlard is giving a masterclass on desserts. He's a new face to TV, but his A-list clientele includes Madonna, Elton John, Claudia Schiffer and George Michael. Think of this programme as a taster for the French chef's new series, in which he shows how to make the best cakes, meringues and pastries, which starts on Channel 4 next week. Today, however, he's focusing on chocolate mouse and apple soufflés. Radio Times reviewer - Jane Rackham
