A series of six programmes
with Professor Peter Bauer

"The foreign aid crusade is a gigantic confidence trick. A well-meaning public has been conned by a motley coalition... which includes... disillusioned, power - and money - hungry academics, temperamental do-gooders and politicians in search of publicity."

In tonight's discussion from the Royal Institution, Professor Peter Bauer of the London School of Economics argues that foreign aid from the rich to the poor countries is rarely beneficial and often harmful. Among those who disagree with him are Judith Hart MP, and Lord Caradon; and they, and others, tackle Professor Bauer on some of his views.

Introduced by Professor Sir George Porter

featuring Salena Jones, Doris Troy, Esther Marrow
guest David Snell

Doris Troy's description of what happened in a smoky club in Birmingham when three well tempered ladies stood up to sing for half an hour.
Nobody sings their latest record, they simply bring a new vitality to the songs, some strong, some gentle, that gives a sparkle to that current expression for doing it well - 'getting it together.'
