A weekly programme which focuses on people and the situations which shape their lives.
John Cousins never stood on the steps of Transport House to declare that, like father, he'd someday become boss of the gigantic Transport and General Workers Union. Douglas Hogg hasn't said he'll be as prominent a barrister or politician as father Quintin. Children of famous fathers, they are having a go at the same careers in which their fathers distinguished themselves. Living up to father's name is a big task. Yet even when entering a vastly different field there are still pressures, criticisms, accusations of 'string pulling'. Unlike his father, David Montgomery, son of the Field-Marshal, isn't a soldier. He works in the perfume business. But like the others he finds there are always comparisons and the personal worry of living up to the name.
