and Dinsdale Landen as Ronald

Lucy, who is eight, believes absolutely in fairies. She sees them in the garden and she posts letters to them in the hollow tree.
Henry Ramsden loves children.
He is senior colleague to Lucy's ambitious father Ronald and when he asks if he can answer Lucy's letters-as if from the Fairy King! -Ronald and his wife Sylvia reluctantly agree.
The letters are a great pleasure to Henry and a source of intense wonder and excitement to Lucy; but the make-believe world they are living in is based on deceit and cannot last.

with on-the-spot reports by Fyfe Robertson, David Lomax, Philip Tibenham, Denis Tuohy, Linda Blandford

We British have a deserved reputation for some extraordinary attitudes towards pet animals. We spend millions on pet foods and accessories and yet animal welfare societies devote much of their time to destroying abandoned dogs and cats.
In spite of health risks, which are largely ignored by existing legislation, there is a boom in the pet trade because more and more people want unusual and exotic pets. You need no qualifications to be a pet trader. Britain's pet shops are often well below standards enforced by some other countries.
Fyfe Robertson in the first of three film reports examines the pet trade in Britain and finds much that is controversial and disturbing.
