A Lost Generation

The Law and You
Magistrates Courts deal with 95 per rent of all criminal cases in England and Wales. They also, as civil courts, deal with matters such as unpaid rates; and, in domestic proceedings, with matters such as separation and maintenance, affiliation orders, etc. Many of us feel that the law and the legal process are best left to the experts. And yet, if you find yourself in the Magistrates Courts (perhaps for an alleged motoring or shoplifting offence) it is helpful to have some understanding of various points of law, of legal jargon, court procedure, rules of evidence, and so on. In the studio to answer your questions are two lawyers-solicitor Michael Cook , author of The Courts and You; and Kenneth Edwards , Chief Clerk of Bow Street Magistrates Court in London.

' Mum married my father when she was 18. Out of 15 pregnancies only five of her children survived. She loved us and provided for us, laughed with us when her work as a cleaner was done, and struggled to keep us together. Our devotion to her created an indestructible family unity.'

Truly the Palace of Modern Magician
A word often used to describe Cragside is 'Wagnerian'. Magnificently sited among the hills of Northumberland, the house was designed by the great Victorian architect Norman Shaw as the country residence of Sir William Armstrong, later Baron Armstrong of Cragside, the inventor, engineer and armaments millionaire.
Cragside was one of the marvels of the age. Not only was it the first house in Britain to be lit by electricity, but its bleak moorland setting was transformed by the planting of no fewer than seven million trees and shrubs. The house was recently acquired by the National Trust and is open to the public from next Monday.
In this programme June Knox-Mawer tells the story of Cragside and its restoration, with contributions from, among, others, the present Lord Armstrong, Sir John Betjeman, Mark Girouard and Sheila Pettit.

With Britain poised for the first direct elections to the European Pa rliam ent. Radio 4UK combines with Radio Ulster,
Radio Wales/Cymru and BBC Local Radio stations, and BBC2's Brass Tacks, for this major debate on the future of Europe. It comes live from Birmingham Town Hall and leading speakers from Britain and other European countries consider which direction the EEC should now take; what will be the powers of the new Parliament; and. in particular, how this country's interests might best be served within the Community.
Should we continue with our traditional caution, safeguarding our independence and preserving our sovereignty? Or has the time come for us to take a more committed stance and seek stronger influence among the other partners? Chairman
