The next crew exchange on the International Space Station is scheduled for 9 October. Astronauts Mike Fincke and Gennadi Padalka will be returning to Earth after a six-month stay onboard the ISS. When they departed on 19 April 2004, they were in the company of Dutch ESA astronaut André Kuipers who returned with the old crew to Earth, after eleven days in space.

This transmission is the second in a series of four review programmes with the best images from this mission. Part Two focuses on the last week in Baikonour prior to launch, and includes many hitherto unseen images featuring also Fincke and Padalka.

The programme includes an A-roll of ten minutes (split audio – English voiceover) with clean international sound.
