Roy Clarke 's richly matured comedy-drama, is still going strong after almost 20 years. Starring Bill Owen
Peter Sallis , Brian Wilde Quick, Quick, Slow. What could possibly dim the sunset glow that gilds the perennial boyhood of the three old reprobates as they drift through the timeless little Yorkshire town? For the hitherto irrepressible Compo it's the suspicion that Nora Batty 's new lodger, Smiler (Stephen Lewis , long remembered as the reviled inspector from On the Buses) is taking advantage of his privileged position. Fortunately, Foggy remembers a cure he learned in the jungle during the war.

Martha Gellhorn
For more than half a century, Martha Gellhorn has been writing fiction and reporting on war. An angry witness to the waste and injustice of military might, she has reported from some of the most tragic places on earth - Spain in the 1930s, Dachau, Vietnam, El Salvador. Last year, at the age of 81, she was in Panama, investigating the human cost of the American invasion. Tonight, in her first major interview for television, she talks about her career as a war correspondent and reads selections from her despatches, and discusses her highly acclaimed fiction and travel writing.
