A personal view by James Burke in ten parts.
The 15th-century world was one of magic, mime and memory. Bible stories were told in pictures on church walls; news was broadcast in song by bands of wandering troubadours; when people died, what they knew died with them. Then, sometime around 1450, a German goldsmith and small-time entrepreneur came up with one more idea to make a few quick pfennigs. In doing so, he changed the world and took away our memories forever. His secret invention ushered in a new world of standardised technology.
It shook the Catholic Church, and made Martin Luther a household name. It spread news like wildfire; what was fashionable in Florence became fashion in France. And vague memories became a matter of hard fact. Find out the goldsmith's secret...

by Barbara Castle with Donald MacCormick After 19 years as a back-bench MP,
Barbara Castle found herself in the new Labour Cabinet of 1964 as Minister for Overseas Development. Her first experience of being in the Cabinet came as a shock, and she talks frankly about her initial impressions of Cabinet ministry - 'One has very naive ideas about how government works when you are a back-bencher'. In the second of four programmes, she also looks back to the bitter conflict within the Labour Party, when she was a prominent member of the 'Bevanites', the left-wing group led by her hero, Aneurin Bevan , who was frequently at odds with Clement Attlee and Hugh Gaitskell.
