A weekly programme which focuses on people and the situations which shape their lives.
Reporters, Angela Huth, Jeremy James, John Percival, Trevor Philpott, Desmond Wilcox

This week: Everybody is Out of Step
What happens when one man or woman decides everybody else is out of step? Out of step with the society in which we live, and with its rules and regulations. Can a single person's tenacity beat the system or must the individual get involved in fruitless struggles with authority - only in the end to be bulldozed into submission?
