90 Years in the Cause of Architecture
America's most famous architect, the son of a Yorkshire preacher and grandson of a Welsh one, Frank Lloyd Wright lived and died believing he was the prophet of a new architecture. 'Now I have been accused of saying that I was the greatest architect in the world,' he confessed to the TV cameras, 'and, if I had said so, I don't think it would be very arrogant because I don't believe there are many, if any. For 500 years what we call architecture has been phoney.'
Born 1869, died 1959: during that time he had three wives and one mistress who was assassinated by a madman; and turned out thousands of designs for buildings that seemed to have nothing in common except their authorship. Tonight's film is a personal record of an architect who 'strode into architecture, talking like a man unaware that there ever was such a production as a house, or such a thing as an architect. He had to recreate architecture with the elements at hand'

The first in a season of new TV feature films made in America. It's a story of how big crime has invaded big business pouring millions of 'hot' dollars into legitimate companies. It is also a story of young love, of a boy and girl who weren't supposed to fall for one another but did.
Two big stars are in the lead - Don Murray of 'The Hoodlum Priest' fame and Swedish-born Inger Stevens

Fifty-million people watch TV in Britain; 300-million watch it in the rest of Europe. Today television's antennae grope across large areas of Europe's skyline from the Shannon to the Volga. The television screen can unite millions of viewers, but equally it can divide them. There are differences of kind and of degree, of quantity and of quality, of emphasis and of interpretation
Each week Europa highlights some of these aspects by presenting the stories and issues that have interested some of the millions of television viewers across a continent
