Dennis Weaver as Sgt Dan Stone in 67 Hours, 24 Minutes and Counting A demand that the authorities pay a million dollars or the city will explode in a nuclear holocaust puts Stone in conflict with federal agents.

A series of eight programmes 4: Cons
How do those labelled by society as criminals preserve their identity, their individuality, when prison dehumanises men with uniforms, numbers, and regimentation? There is no association, no evening classes, and the workshops are seldom open. Over a thousand adult prisoners are locked up every day - many hundreds three to a cell. Imprisonment also has a strong impact on the families outside. In tonight's programme some of Strangeways' ' 'cons' talk frankly about prison life and their attitudes to crime.
But even with all the restrictions of imprisonment, it is possible to find extraordinary ways to break the monotony.
Film cameraman DEREK BANKS
