Where better to live than in a pretty village situated in a national park! It's certainly many people's dream and some have achieved their ambition. But now the cost of the rush to the countryside is being counted. Houses and cottages are so expensive they are out of reach of farm workers and other villagers. Young people who cannot afford to live in their own communities are having to move away.

Tarzan Swings Back
Three weeks ago the former darling of the Conservative Party, Michael Heseltine , launched a measured and trenchant critique of current Tory policies. In doing so he confirmed his status as the most popular alternative Conservative leader. His views on Europe, British industry and public spending have marked him out as the leading articulator of 'post-Thatcherism'. But can there be a new Conservatism after Mrs Thatcher ? If so, what would it look like? On the Record puts
Heseltinism to the test. Presented by Jonathan Dimbleby with John Cole. Producer MICHAEL STEVENSON Studio director MARK LUCAS Deputy editor DAVID JORDAN Editor DAVID AARONOVITCH

Moral issues are coming ever more into public awareness: the daily headlines proclaim
' as much. But where headlines deal in black and white, the issues themselves are rarely so simple.
Heart of the Matter seeks out such issues; Joan Bakewell examines the moral conflict of people with strongly held and frequently opposing views, and considers what their dilemma means for everyone.

Six films about equal opportunities in Britain. 3: A Roof over Our Heads
Thousands still cannot find homes or are living in inadequate conditions. But despite the law against discrimination, surveys show that this misery is not shared equally - housing provision is worse for black people than for white. Are local authorities and housing associations equipped with the right allocations procedures? Could they do more to prevent racial harassment?
