Tonight Sally Hardcastle reports from one of the country's most talked-about but least known institutions - Broadmoor. In the first of three films she examines the reasons why people are confined there.

'The Broadmoor name is famous and, to many, fearful. Seven hundred men and women are being kept there until they can be declared no longer a danger to the public. Hundreds of others work in overcrowded old buildings. I think we were allowed in because both patients and staff are fed up with the horrific image of Broadmoor that's presented. And that image is unfair.'

Plus The Greening of Gilfach Goch: Frank Bough visits South Wales where an industrial wasteland has been turned into pastures new.
