Assigned as a teacher to a remote island off the coast of South Carolina, Pat Conroy finds that he has only 21 pupils. Unfortunately none of them can read or write, they hate school and have no future on the isolated outpost of civilisation. This deeply affecting movie traces the true story of how Conroy - called ' Conrack ' by the children - gradually led them to literacy and dignity. Jon Voight gives probably his finest performance as the idealistic young teacher, in a work of great warmth and humanity,

HARRY CARPENTER introduces highlights of today's Olympic competition featuring athletics, swimming and rowing finals
Faced with the poverty and suffering of the Third World, many people want to help, but are put off by the size of the problem. Some charity organisations now realise that we will give more willingly to ' somebody we know '. One result is ' postal parents ' - individual sponsorship of a Third World child. ' Every penny you give goes to support your child and your child's programme.' This is the promise that has made Action in Distress one of Britain's fastest growing new charities.
This Everyman report by Peter France , first shown earlier this year, begins with two families in England who are ' postal parents ' and goes to India to discover that the reality for their children is not quite what they imagine.
