Tonight:

Drill pickle. Under current American rules, BP can no longer drill where it wants to -- which means, according to BP, that it can't afford to pay the victims of BP.

A first people's first. From Australia's post-election chaos emerges the remarkable story of a pioneering aboriginal MP.

Hunger counter-strike. Furious about skyrocketing food and water prices, residents of Maputo, Mozambique stage violent protests.

Good cob, bad cob. In Kenya, conditions are just right for something to go very wrong, in the form of a toxic fungus that attacks corn.

The escape artist. Graham Miles should only be able to blink -- but seventeen years after he was diagnosed with "locked-in syndrome", he'll walk to the phone and talk to us.

And...crack open an old one. There's nothing better than the beer at the bottom of the cooler -- unless it's one that's been chilling for two hundred years at the bottom of the Baltic Sea.

As It Happens, the Friday edition. Radio that's somewhere between the Devil and the deep-sea brew.
