A party of 20 children take a final holiday from school and enjoy a week in Switzerland. They see the wood-carvers of Brienz, the cheesemakers of Niedermuhlen, bears in Berne and they go up and down the mountains by cable-car and by rack and pinion railway.
It is a holiday full of new sights and sounds - but they see only the sights as they are all profoundly deaf.

(This will be a milestone in the history of television. For the first time anywhere in the world, a programme will be transmitted to two sets of viewers at the same time. For most viewers it will be seen as a normal programme. but for deaf viewers with Ceefax sets it will be seen with a visual commentary. There will be sub-titles but, for the first time ever, only for Ceefax viewers who want them),
