This week: The Sultan

This is the first of a series of situation comedies, shown recently on BBC Wales, featuring a character who emerged from a serial, A Matter of Degree, written some years ago by Elaine Morgan. Lil lives alone in a small town in a South Wales valley, and Elaine Morgan believes that women like her could be found in every small South Wales town and village. 'The problems that beset her are everybody's problems', she says, 'and in most cases she manages, by a mixture of directness, doggedness, and guile, to come out on top in the end'.

Tomorrow's World ...in the making today

Raymond Baxter introduces film, Outside Broadcast, and studio reports on the men and developments which are changing our way of looking at and living life.

Tomorrow's World
Liza Bronstrom, who is forty-four and Swedish, recently underwent a critical brain operation for the relief of a disease which had played havoc with her social and emotional life since the age of nineteen. But the doctors who did the operation did not have to open out her skull and probe within the brain itself. They used a new form of bloodless surgery - directing by remote control a stream of atomic particles into some tiny areas of Liza's brain. Surgeons and scientists had joined together in a unique way to use the atomic particles for healing.
The story of Liza's operation is told in Tomorrow's World and her case highlights in many ways the significance of this new series of six weekly programmes. In each one we shall be showing how new developments and discoveries throughout the world are having a decisive effect on the way we live and earn our living. The programmes will range from the farthest stars in the universe to the depths of the ocean floor - and from the way we use our skills to some of the new ways in which our children will be educated in the future.
You will see the work of men and women who are shaping both the present and the future - for, as the title suggests, tomorrow's world is in the making today. Ultimately, this work is likely to have the most powerful effect on the nature and quality of life. Its variety, abundance, and importance will, we believe, make fascinating television. (Glyn Jones)
