A National Health Service prescription form is supposed to provide the sick with free medicine, but in the hands of crooked doctors and chemists it has become the key to a multi-million pound fraud.

Tonight's programme exposes the rackets undermining the prescription of medicines and spectacles. It also documents how the NHS is fighting back by using its special investigators in an attempt to smash British-based fraud rings and tackle the growing interest in prescription frauds being shown by organised crime overseas.

(Note: as Panorama is topical and likely to react to events in the news, the above programme is liable to change.)

The arts documentary series marks its return by taking one of Britain's most acclaimed and prolific writers, Jack Rosenthal, on a retrospective journey to revisit the people and places which inspired his career over the first 30 years of his life, up to the point, in 1961, when he wrote the first of his 129 Coronation Street episodes. The film includes contributions from his family and friends from his days at school, university, and in the Navy, who provided influence for his work. Jack Rosenthal's acclaimed play Bar Mitzvah Boy follows this programme at 11.35pm.

Another chance to see Jack Rosenthal's comic drama, based on his Jewish background, originally shown in BBC's Play for Today strand. "Bar Mitzvah Boy" was named Best Single Play, and Rosenthal Best Writer, at the 1976 Baftas.
With his family feverishly making preparations for his opulent Bar Mitzvah banquet, 13-year-old Eliot Green is fast approaching the moment when he will become a man in the eyes of the Jewish community. But the realisation dawns on Eliot that none of the men he is close to measure up to his boyhood myth of what they should be like.
