First Sight: Pulling Rank

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

The mighty Rank Organisation has just received local planning permission for an £80 million holiday village to be built in the unspoilt woodlands of Lyminge in Kent. They say their village will provide 1,000 jobs for the area and is a blueprint for environmentally sound tourism. Their opponents disagree. Local residents, ornithologists and conservationists have joined forces with one of Westminster's most successful lobbyists to fight the plan. Jackie Spreckley reports.
A phone-in discussion of the issues raised in the programme follows immediately on BBC Radios Berkshire, Kent, Oxford and GLR. If you would like to take part, call [number removed] after the programme.
