Five women on one subject: Men
Man is a restless thing; still vain and wild,
Lives beyond sixty, nor outgrows the child...
It is this childish, and childlike, aspect of man as described by Isaac Watts that occupies the women this week. There are also the implications of man as child - and as son.
Mrs. Kathleen Behan, mother of five sons, including Dominic and the late Brendan faces:
Greta Lamb, a grandmother
Shirley Deighton, wife of the thriller writer
Elizabeth Dickenson, a doctor's wife
and Elisabeth Frink the sculptor whose bronze warrior adorns the series.
Musical comment, Shirley Abicair accompanied by the Bill Sutcliffe Trio
followed by The Weather
Round off the day with Denis Tuohy, Michael Dean and tonight's guests.
