A monthly platform for discussion of topical issues affecting television programme-makers and their audiences.
Tonight's programme examines the portrayal of family life in popular drama on television.
In a short film, Conservative activist Graham Robb argues that, with marital breakdown and divorce on the increase in the 1980s, plus a rising number of single-parent families, television drama bears a heavy responsibility for undermining family values. In the studio drama producers and writers, together with viewers, debate the issues raised in the film. Presented by Margo McDonald.
