Megan du Boisson
' Multiple sclerosis,' they said. But low
And deep Within me I keep
Saying No
MEGAN DU boisson, founder of the Disablement Income Group, was killed in a car crash nearly four years ago. She had suffered for some time from multiple sclerosis, an illness for which there is no known cure.
Tonight's programme tells the story of the housewife and mother who became champion of the disabled.
Presented by SUE MACGREGOR Producer MICHAEL GREEN (from Manchester)

A weekly magazine of the arts Presented by John Julius Norwich
This work deals with problems that cannot be regarded as exceptionally topical (Henrik Ibsen on his- play A Doll's House): MARGHANITA LASKI and RONALD BRYDEN investigate whether it is still topical. Christopher Hampton's new adaptation stars Claire Bloom and Colin Blakely at the Criterion Theatre. London.
JAMES SAUNDERS talks about his latest play Hans Kohlhaas , based on the German tale of a 16th-century horse-dealer's search for justice. The play has just opened at the Greenwich Theatre. London.
Alec McCowen and Maggie Smith star in the film version of Graham Greene 's novel Travels with my Aunt. Does a novel inevitably ' lose ' something in transferring to the screen?
