Now and at the Hour of Our Birth by BRUCE STEWART with Lee Montague Helen Horton Robert Beatty Ed Bishop
Paul Maxwell
Was Jim Jones , the leader of the Peoples Temple (whose members committed mass suicide in Guyana in 1978) insane? If he was. then the madness did not manifest itself so much in the new social order he intended to create, but in the methods he used to bring it about - the methods of a paranoid whose mind was under the constant influence of drugs. Directed by MARTIN JENKINS long wave only

Themes from the 70s. The last of ten programmes
10: Change in the Laager Southern Africa remains one of the flashpoints of the 1980s. The independence of Zimbabwe and the withdrawal of the Portuguese has meant the ending of white rule everywhere except South Africa and Namibia. As a result the government of South Africa has been forced to rethink some of its most sacred apartheid policies and embark on reforms that would have been unthinkable a decade ago. Stanley Uys has been looking at whether Prime Minister Botha can succeed in reaching a peaceful settlement in his country. Can he win the race against time? Producer RACHEL ATTWELL (Revised repeat)

Written and presented by Michael Hardwick
with
Sherlock Holmes dies at Reichenbach Falls - the news sent the British nation into mourning. City gents went about wearing black arm bands. A campaign was launched to bring the famous detective back. How could this fictitious character move a staid, unemotional race to such passion? And what sort of man created him?
This programme, to mark the 50th anniversary of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's death, attempts to answer these questions.
