Tonight they accompany their creator - all rumpled and content with his pipe - as he begins a three-part journey to the places of his childhood and youth. Their first stop is
Scarborough, the Brandons' favourite seaside resort, which also has special meaning for Peter Tinniswood ...
'Once, long ago, my dad made the long trek here over the Pennines from Lancashire and came back agog with wide-eyed wonder at gargantuan breakfasts and wild, rampant sunsets.'

A two-part film telling the chilling story of one of the world's most wanted mass murderers based on The Life and Crimes of Charles
Sobhraj by RICHARD NEVILLE and JULIE CLARKE. Starring
1: In 1977 two young journalists were given the assignment of their lives: to interview Charles Sobhraj - Asia's most wanted criminal - and write a book about his life. Above all they had to find the truth about Sobhraj. They paid little heed to a warning from a person who knew him well: 'Sobhraj has only two categories of people - accomplices and victims. You must be one or the other'.

A series in seven parts presented by David Dimbleby. 2: Home in Pasadena
Every week during the 20s, millions of British cinema-goers had a taste of the American dream.
In the wake of those films,
American business pioneers like Ford, Edison and Firestone launched their assault on the Old World.
With the lipstick and light bulbs, patent leather shoes and vacuum cleaners, came the salesmen of the commercial revolution.
