William Mervyn as Dr Johnson Annette Crosbie as Hester Thrale
One of Dr Johnson's jaunts was to North Wales, in 1774, accompanying Mr and Mrs Thrale and their young daughter. Queeney.
Diaries kept by Johnson and Mrs Thrale during the trip illuminate this portrait of their unique friendship over 20 years - a relationship of intimacy and deep affection, sometimes tetchy and teasing, ending sadly in estrangement. Narrator FRANK DUNCAN
NIGEL GRAHAM as James Boswell Written by DAVID WHEELER

Italy - What Next?
Since the war Italy has made great changes in her economic and social life. But her recent severe import restrictions are another sign that the succession of some three dozen governments has left unsolved some major economic problems, along with questions about political extremism, the upheavals brought about by rapid industrialisation and the inadequacy of reform. The political consequences of the divorce referendum, too, are unpredictable.
