A mime play for deaf children devised by Pat Keysall and acted by members of the Royal National Institute for the Deaf Mime Group.
Stitch the shoemaker was kind and hardworking, but other people always wanted to get his work for nothing. In fact, poor Stitch nearly starved, until one day his money-till started to make magic and then strange things happened to his customers.
Programme arranged in co-operation with the Royal National Institute for the Deaf.

Barry Bucknell's weekly do-it-yourself TV guide to work in the home.

Some of the rooms are now ready for the final touches-pelmets and curtains, new floor covering and new skirting boards; and the long, steady operation of wallpapering continues. There is a new idea for a warm floor in the front bedroom of the basement flat, and the basement hall can now be completed with cupboards and a door made of transparent plastic.

Introduced by Peter Scott.
Reproduction and parental care take wonderfully varied forms. The mud dauber wasp never sees her young but, acting by instinct only, seals up a living caterpillar for her grub to feed on. The higher mammals respond to their young in complicated ways and care for them for weeks and even for years.
The programme deals with three stages of parental care-preparation for birth, birth, and feeding the young.

Written by David Sylvester and Michael Gill.

Modern art has been the destroyer of many accepted conventions in painting and sculpture. The style known as Cubism, which came into being 50-odd years ago, has been the chief agent of destruction. Pablo Picasso, one of the original Cubists, has remained in the forefront of the shock troops of modern art.
