The new series starring Thora Hird, Robert Keegan, James Grout and Henry Knowles
with John Paul and John Bown

John Park, a sixteen-year-old grammar school boy, is committed to Foley Ridge Approved School near Furness for persistent stealing. The regime at the school is robust and Park absconds. Tom Danby recognises the boy and shelters him. Sarah is curious about the Approved School Service and quizzes the deputy headmaster, who is a progressive teacher and hell-bent on reform. She finds out that the deputy head is in direct conflict with the headmaster, who is a devout believer in corporal punishment, to the point of attracting charges of brutality. The battle lines are drawn and Sarah finds herself in the middle of the controversy.

The busiest week of world heavyweight boxing. Tonight from the Madison Square Garden, New York, the twelve-round international heavyweight battle between Buster Mathis (Michigan) and Jerry Quarry (Los Angeles)
Mathis, a six foot three inches, sixteen stone giant, is contracted to fight next for London promoter Harry Levene. Mathis has fought twenty-four professional contests.
Irish-American Quarry defeated Blackpool's Brian London one year ago: a former Golden Gloves heavyweight champion who wants to fight in Britain. In thirty professional contests he has revealed himself as a brave, swashbuckling Californian heavyweight.
If Mathis wins will he fight the winner of this week's Billy Walker - Jack Bodell battle at the Wembley Empire Pool?

The Grand National Preview
A night when racing's most famous steeplechase event is probed in detail by the amateur and professional jockeys.
