Read by Brigid Erin Bates The whole theatre was in uproar. In the dressing-rooms and all around the stage area, small children were milling about in all directions. Teddy bears mingling with Spanish dancers, Swiss maids with Cossacks. Large girls in tutus stood around, looking conspicuous and self-conscious. It was Saturday evening. One hour to curtain-up on the annual show of Miss Meredith's School of Dance and Mime. Producer CHRIS SPURR BBC Northern Ireland

It used to be a bit of a joke: 'Not Cuba again - isn't it about time we put it in the timetable'. But those days are over. Now it's a game played for stakes more important than mere money, between teams of governments who can't even agree on the rules, and hijackers whose own lives are nothing so long as they find success before the television cameras of the world. What about the passengers and crew - mere pawns in the game? They may escape with their lives, but how have those lives been changed after those few days 'up in the air'? Producers
