Whether it likes it or not British industry will be in the Common Market from 1 January. New laws, new markets, new competition are waiting. How prepared is the average British businessman? How much does he know, or care about Europe? Which sections of industry are likely to do well-or fare badly?
Businessmen here and across the Channel talk about our chances.

An affectionate parody of explorers and exploration films with Yemi Ajibade, Merdel Jordine, Bloke Modisane, Horace Ove and Douglas Botting.
For years there have been white expeditions to darkest Africa. Now there comes a black expedition to darkest Britain. In the footsteps of Stanley, in the tradition of The World About Us, and in a take-off of both, a black man's expedition now journeys along the Liverpool-Leeds canal to find the centre of Britain. On the way the intrepid explorers do what travellers and television safaris always have: they examine the quaint customs of the natives, delve into their folklore and record for posterity an exotic but fast-vanishing culture.
