The World About Us is a BBC television documentary series which ran from 1967 to 1987. Each episode lasted sixty minutes and covered a single human-interest article defined by geography, anthropology and natural history. Because of the broad subject range and often obscure, out of the ordinary stories, the show produced an eclectic mixture of documentaries. The show was notable for its minimalistic opening credits which shows a spinning spherical lattice, presumably signifying the world, producing an optical illusion that confuses the eye as to which way the sphere spinning, accompanied by a haunting melody produced on a single flute or other wind instrument.
