It is one of the highlights of the London season: the Royal Navy's field-gun competition at the Royal Tournament - shown here as it celebrated its centenary year in 1979.

Forty-four years ago, Klaus Barbie was a Nazi chief in the French city of Lyon. Next week he goes on trial there for crimes against humanity. Between these dates, Barbie has led an astonishing life.
Protected by US Intelligence after the war and spirited by them to South America, he has in turn been arms dealer, drugs smuggler and security adviser until his capture four years ago. The prosecution will accuse him of atrocities against the Jews and the French Resistance. His defence will raise painful, embarrassing ghosts from the German Occupation.
Tom Bower speaks to his accusers and defenders, including his daughter, and examines the impact on France of probably her last - and most controversial - trial of a war criminal.

A Tale of Two Cities
Unemployment in Exeter is below the national average and the majority of the city's inhabitants are in secure, well-paid, service jobs. But for those less fortunate, the contrast could hardly be greater. Bill Jordan , Reader in Social Studies, Exeter University, looks at the experiences of three families who have faced periods of unemployment and asks: should we be thinking of a radical change to the social security and tax system to take account of the changing nature of work in Britain?
