The Thames: How Sweetly Does It Run?

on BBC Radio 4 FM

by Bernard Venables

Land is only as healthy as the rivers that lay in it. No river bears more of the print of our history's use of it than the Thames. How well have we honoured our trust of it? What image of ourselves is there in the mirror that the river holds up to us?

Taking part: Reginald Bolland, formerly Thames Conservancy; Dick Hodges, Secretary, Thames Angling Preservation Society; Peter Newbery, Field Officer for the Wiltshire Trust for Nature Conservation; Harold Ody, farmer.
Presented by Martin Muncaster
With Sean Barrett, Edward Kelsey, Rod Beacham and Malcolm Gerard
