with Peter Purves
A series of four dramatised documentaries which re-create history in the places where it was made.

'My name is written in heaven.' So said the five-year-old Therese Martin. Years later she knelt at the feet of the Pope and begged to be allowed to enter the austere Carmelite Convent at the age of 15. Ten years later she died in Carmel, unknown beyond its walls. Yet, after 30 years, she was proclaimed a saint, and millions all over the world became devoted to Saint Therese, the Little Flower of Lisieux.
With Angela Down as the voice of St Therese

Louise Mutlow seemed to have everything against her when she announced she planned to marry Nigel Coo. She was a schoolgirl, he was out of work. Their parents disapproved. They had no chance of a home of their own. And the figures show that marriages where both bride and groom are teenagers are more than twice as likely to end in divorce. But Louise was determined...

Christine Turner is a glamorous grandmother now. But she married at 16 and pregnant, like one in four of today's teenage brides. Her daughter Jackie was at technical college when she announced that she wanted to marry. Christine feared that the problems of her own first marriage were about to be repeated...

Yet teenage marriages can last.
Irene Webb followed a family tradition when she married at 19, 40 years ago.

Jenny Conway reports on Britain's most vulnerable marriages.
