June Grimble and James Lloyd introduce young people who have decided what they wish to be to people who have succeeded in their chosen occupations.

What is it like to be a civil engineer or a farmer? This is what four boys and girls between the ages of fourteen and sixteen will be finding out in this week's edition of Threshold. As in past programmes the questions put by the young people will be very searching and direct. For instance, they will probably want to know just how much they will get paid, and whether the best training is to be got at a university or actually on the job. The civil engineer answering the questions will be Stewart Kirk, who is at present working on the new Severn Bridge, and the farmer John Cherrington, also well known as a broadcaster.
