In the second of two programmes ROGER CLARK talks to the art critic and historian Lord Clark of Saltwood about his life and work. This week he describes his marriage and how, at the age of 30, he became the youngest ever Director of the National Gallery. KENNETH CLARK tells what precautions were taken to protect the paintings in wartime and talks about why he took on the chairmanship of ITA: 1 I thought it would amuse me ... I love building up a thing from scratch ': and his attitude now towards civilisation: ' If you don' have an elite and some people of superior mind and character guiding the people then it falls into barbarism. If you don' have an elite you don' have a civilisation - that's quite clear.'. Technical presentation GRAHAM CLIFFORD
