with Christopher Ricks
"What is missing from the national planning about television is any serious or hard thinking about the point of the 'box' and failure to realise that this harmless toy could develop into an uncontrollable monster. Does Britain have The Least Worst Television in the World?" This is the title of Milton Shulman's new book (Barrie and Jenkins).
Also: World Cinema - a Short History by David Robinson: 75 years and a quarter of a million films since the beginning, an attempt to assess the main shaping influences on the art form of the 20th century.
JANE ALEXANDER looks at The Future of Marriage, a sociological view by Jessie Bernard : and a fictional view. Marriages, a first novel by Peter Straub.
Producer KRISHAN KUMAR
