"We try to be the sort of neighbour we feel our readers would like to have..."
Every week twelve million women read Woman, Woman's Own, Woman's Realm, and Woman's Weekly. What's in these magazines that makes them so popular? Why does Woman's Weekly prefer stories with happy endings, while Woman's Realm favours off-beat ones?
Tonight's programme takes a look at what's in these four magazines and, with the help of 100 women in the studio, tries to find out if the editors are right about what their readers like.

Going to the sales? Borrowing from your neighbour? Or simply going for a walk in the country? Even the most ordinary incidents in our lives are covered by regulations. In 1968 Parliament passed eighty new laws - and nearly 1,500 changes in regulations. Most of them affect us all. You may be breaking the law without knowing it and remember, ignorance is no excuse!
Cliff Michelmore and Magnus Magnusson give you the chance to find out if you know what's new in 1969. Keep your score at home and compare it with those of the three studio teams:
Four members of the House of Lords
Four policemen and
A team of policemen's wives

What matters in the news and out of it with Kenneth Allsop and Michael Barratt, Robert McKenzie, Vincent Kane
The first of six programmes in which Ian Nairn looks at the changing face of Britain.
For the past hundred years the British have looked on their industrial landscape as something devoid of beauty. Ian Nairn believes that because of this attitude we are missing some of the most spectacular grandeur in Britain.
As a critic of architecture and planning, Ian Nairn has always concerned himself with the priorities of what people need rather than empty aesthetics.
In these six programmes he looks at industrial landscape; considers the unique appeal of Liverpool; tries to analyse the attraction of a summer Bank Holiday county like Cornwall; asks if in new towns like Cumbernauld people have been given enough say in their environment; sees the potential in a plan for a Welsh hill-town; and finally takes a look at a uniquely British institution - the public house.
