Today's story: "The Moonrocket" by Wilma Horsbrugh

Further action from Wimbledon

with Keith Graves; Weather

Since the end of the First World War, the landed gentry's large estates have gone. No longer can a man walk 50 miles in a straight line and never leave his own land. Taxation has reshaped the countryside and changed the landowner. Today he cannot leave an underling to manage the broad acres while he lives on the proceeds somewhere else. There is still plenty of inherited land, but new landowners are emerging. For them, the estate is not a sacred trust to be preserved, but an asset to be exploited.
The face of Britain is changing, but is it changing the way it should? The Money Programme reports on the private landowner.

Long Live the Whitechapel
Seventy-one years ago a picture gallery was opened just round the corner from London's 'Petticoat Lane.' Its founder, a colour-blind clergyman, borrowed paintings to show to the people of Whitechapel and Stepney. Recently the Whitechapel Art Gallery has put on a show of Pre-Raphaelite pictures, some of which were seen at its very first show. Since then it's been, at times, the showplace for modern British and American artists. This is the story of the Whitechapel told by artists, art-lovers' and its present director Jenny Stein: a look at the past and the future - with next week's show of paintings by Patrick Heron.
