Romania: State of Fear While much of Eastern
Europe is looking towards democratic reform, President Ceausescu's Romania is pointing in the opposite direction. Traditional village communities are being destroyed, food is severely rationed and women of childbearing age are required to have at least five children. Romanians believe the rumour that one in five people is an informer for the securitate, the secret police. Filmed secretly inside Romania with tourist cameras, and in Hungary with refugees who have escaped across the border, this special edition of Everyman reports on the victims of President
Ceausescu's reign of terror, in particular the people of Transylvania who are struggling against the odds to preserve their cultural identity.

The eclipse of the Moon, due on the early morning of 17 August, will be well seen from all over Britain (clouds permitting). It is a fascinating spectacle; slowly the Earth's shadow creeps across the Moon's face, blotting out the mountains and craters.
Patrick Moore talks about the eclipse, and H. J. P. Arnold explains how to take good photographs of it with an ordinary camera.
