Introduced by Cliff Michelmore

This week 12 different versions of a new family saloon are announced by British Leyland, and Gordon Wilkins road-tests the range in the mountains of southern Spain. Under the code name ADO 67 the new car has front-wheel drive and is priced around £1,000. It will augment the Austin/Morris 1100 and 1300 saloons which now account for 60 per cent of the home car market.

From Zolder, Barrie Gill reports on last Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix, in which the 26-year-old Brazilian Emerson Fittipaldi was out to increase his 12 points lead over Jackie Stewart in the 1973 drivers' world championship.

rehearses students in scenes from Mozart's 'Don Giovanni'
Translation by Edward J. Dent
With Richard Jackson, Alexander Gauld, Elaine Watts, Barbel Edwards and Linda Murray

In his last class Sir Geraint works on scenes from Mozart's Don Giovanni.
How do you make a stage struggle look convincing? How do you act a love scene without excessive sentiment or vulgarity? How do Don Giovanni and his servant Leporello (a role particularly identified with Sir Geraint) establish and develop their relationship?
Tonight there is a chance to see the detailed work that goes to make a performance.

A series of six programmes
Introduced by Joan Bakewell

Fashion of the Neo-Classical age, when Madame Recamier reclined, waistlines rose and necklines fell. The transition from the classic simplicity of the late 18th-century fashion to the beginning of the Romantic era is seen by comparing actual clothes of the period with costumes from the television production of War and Peace.
