by Philip Donnellan
A film about the travelling people of Britain gypsies - tinkers - nomads - potters.
The wanderers of our roads and lanes talk about their lives, their homes, their work, and their problem - us.
They first came here in 1400. Many of their ways of life survive. How have they kept their independence? Can they go on doing so? Where do they go from here?
Commentary by John Seymour

sings his own kind of music
and tonight his guests are Noel Harrison and Maynard Ferguson

As well as trumpeter Maynard Ferguson Scott's other guest is Noel Harrison. His song "Wind-mills of your mind" formed the background music to the credits of the Steve McQueen-Faye Dunaway movie "The Thomas Crown Affair".
Tonight Noel sings this number, which, by mid-March, had entered Britain's Top Twenty.

The first of a new series of personal reflections by leading figures in the world of music and the arts
We all live in a profound kind of terror because we have no idea at all whether we're going to become -whether mankind is going to become-a great creation or whether none of us is going to be existing two years, five years, twenty years or two months.
(Norman Mailer)

The controversial American author Norman Mailer, forty-six-year-old enfant terrible, ex-political candidate, four times married, has, from the time of the publication of his first novel, The Naked and the Dead, remained a controversial figure on the literary scene. And, as his latest books, Why are we in Vietnam?, The Armies of the Night, and Miami and the Siege of Chicago, show, he is a man of deeply-held radical political convictions.
