This week's programme in the series on Man and Science today.

Thirty thousand children in this country today are mentally subnormal. They will never grow up. Their intelligence has been permanently and profoundly damaged, often without warning and with no known cause.
What sort of future can these children expect? This programme examines new techniques which enable such children to overcome low intelligence and master ordinary skills of living. It looks at how psychologists try to solve their learning difficulties in the hope of breaking down the barriers of incomprehension.
Horizon reports on the changing outlook for children who are, as one doctor calls them, strangers in their own country.

A non-stop sing-in of familiar songs with Friday Brown, Trevor Chance, Heathmore, Samantha Jones, Dick Jordan, Mike Redway, Barbara Ruskin, Andee Silver
