When the rains came, the hill farmers of Cumbria were caught with their sheep out on the fells. Twice in a week the radioactive cloud from
Chernobyl dropped its fallout on one of the fairest comers of England. The results have been fear, misunderstanding, debt and uncertainty.
This report looks at the consequences for four farmers living with the aftermath of the world's worst nuclear disaster. Camera STEVE SAUNDERSON

Barclays League Division One Arsenal v Manchester Utd Introduced by Jimmy Hill with Terry Venables
After establishing a club record of 14 straight wins in the first half of the season, Arsenal have momentarily gone off the boil.
A draw against West Ham and victories over Charlton and Queens Park Rangers make up Manchester
United's record in London this season.
Past form at Highbury favours United and a close encounter. They have won there three times in the last four seasons, all by the odd goal, as was Arsenal's victory in the corresponding match last season.

from Sydney
On 26 January 1788 a fleet of 12 ships sailed into a natural harbour on the other side of the world. They carried transported convicts and government officials who were to set up the new colony of Australia.
Roger Royle visits Sydney to commemorate the bicentenary of European settlement. He talks to the REV JOHN MCKNIGHT , directly descended from those 'first fleet' convicts. He meets JOYCE CLAGUE , whose
Aboriginal ancestors have been there for 40,000 years and who finds little to celebrate after 200 years of immigration. He goes to the beach to meet two 'surfies' who mix faith and fun.
Members of Sydney churches gather in the convict-built church of St James to sing their Australian Songs of Praise.
Sings all creation (Iste confessor); Holy Father, God of might
(Catherine); What a friend we have in Jesus; Lift high the cross; Seek, 0 seek the Lord (Venantius); Do not be afraid; Lord of earth and all creation (Bennelong); Love divine (Blaenwem) Researcher LELIA GUlNERY -GREEN Producer NOEL VINCENT Editor STEPHEN WHITTLE (In association with ABC)

The third of ten films in Australia's bicentennial year presented by Alan Whicker. No one exemplifies the buccaneering, entrepreneurial spirit of Western Australia more than Alan Bond, who left Hammersmith as a 13-year-old and is now a megamillionaire and Australian folk hero, the only man to wrest the America's Cup from the Americans. Alister Norwood, son of a Belfast carpenter, is to jeans what Bond is to beer, and Peter Briggs from Streatham, believes that someone who's worth five or ten million 'hasn't really made it'. Briggs owns 150 vintage cars, and offers Alan Whicker a chance to drive in York's annual 'Flying Fifty' endurance trial.

The Moment of Truth
When white missionaries converted black tribes in South Africa to Christianity 200 years ago, they created for their converts an abiding dilemma. Should black
Christians today put their trust in Christian forgiveness and peaceful negotiation, or does their belief in the rightness of overcoming apartheid justify militancy? This film explores that tension. The dilemma leads many black Christians to rebel against their Church's conservatism and look for a new form of faith. Some of them go back to their African tribal roots to mark their separation from 'white'
Christianity. How far should they go towards violent resistance? Or does Christian teaching on forgiveness forbid the overthrow of oppression?
