by George F. Kerr
Starring Edward Chapman, Nicole Maurey, Maurice Kaufmann, Virginia Stride, James Kerry

The struggle for power between Joe and Stephen every so often comes into the open. Joe can never forget that it was his scheme to save death duties that was responsible for his grandson being Managing Director. Stephen, on the other hand, is only too well aware that Joe would like control of the mill. Besides the deep family affection that binds them together, Joe has a great respect for Stephen's ability while Stephen never forgets that Joe is two generations ahead of him in experience.
In tonight's episode Joe gets a chance to sit in Stephen's chair-perhaps permanently.

"The main problem is the inability of management to manage men properly." (Aubrey Jones)

Retirement:
"They're not worrying themselves, at the top Why should I worry? If had my time again, I'd do what the youngsters do and grab all I can get..." (Frank Gates, driver of the Royal Train and express train driver)

Training:
"Seventy per cent of my day was wasted. There was no systematic instruction. I'm not bright but I'm not dim either and there must be something wrong somewhere."
(Birmingham Apprentice)

Britain:
"They tell us to back Britain and there are millions of workers on a basic wage of £12. They must think we are stupid. We are not stupid and we are not against change. But we're for change for the better."
(Worker in a Key Export Industry)

Among those taking part: Sir Alec Clegg, Chief Education Officer, West Riding of Yorkshire; Professor David Glass, University of London; Dr. H.M. Finniston, Deputy Chairman, British Steel Corporation; Aubrey Jones, Chairman, Prices and Incomes Board
Written and produced by Michael Barnes

The British working man has been continually accused of sabotaging productivity, continually exhorted to change. In this film the workers speak for themselves.
