The first of an occasional film series in which Donny MacLeod samples the American life-style, coast-to-coast.
He begins in New York, surviving the breakneck pace of a tourist Saturday - from breakfast at Tiffany's to a midnight view from the Empire State Building. And he relaxes with the millions who spend their Sundays in Central Park. In a skyscraper city this is where everyone lets off steam - and today is Puerto Rico day.

The first of eight stories about the Special Operations Executive.
Narrated by Michael Bryant
In the desperate summer of 1940 Prime Minister Winston Churchill dreamed of striking back at Hitler's all-conquering armies. Dunkirk had been a humiliation; Paris had fallen: the swastika flew from the Arctic ocean to the Bay of Biscay.
Conventional counter-attack was impossible but a strike from within might just work - sabotage, subversion, and a rising tide of resistance. The idea appealed to Churchill's romantic spirit. He gave Hugh Dalton, his Minister of Economic Warfare, one of the most secret jobs of World War II: he must form a new organisation - the Special Operations Executive.
SOE must infiltrate secret agents into occupied Europe. Where could they find such courageous people? How should they train and equip them? How could SOE breach Hitler's fortress and obey Churchill's command to 'set Europe ablaze'?
