Trevor Philpott reports on The Hospital: The Young Doctors Each year more students apply for admission to Guy's medical school than to any other in Britain. The hospital can be highly selective, in accepting students and in the ones they keep as doctors. Staff doctors at Guy's should have the medical world at their feet, and the rosiest of prospects. But do they?
The Young Doctors traces their progress and their attitudes to medicine as they work their way through the hospital system to senior registrar and eventually to consultant. It finds them full of fears - for themselves and their families, the quality of their work, and for the future of the hospital itself,

Commentary by John Crosby
Moze and Addie Pray are well-known to cinemagoers as the travelling confidence tricksters in the highly successful feature film Paper Moon. Next week they start their adventures on BBC2. Tonight's programme talks to Moze and Addie, alias Chris Connelly and Jodie Foster , to find out about those days back in the 30s when the people of America maintained a sense of gaiety despite the depression, and when all the duststorms in the land could not put a cloud over Busby Berkeley. JOHN CROSBY , a mid-West boy himself in the days of Moze and Addie, adds his own comments and memories.

As long as you can throw a flip-flap
Fifty years ago no self-respecting British variety theatre would mount a show without tumblers. In 1974 only one full-time troupe, THE HERCULEANS, is still working in Britain and JOHNNY HUTCH , their 61-year-old leader, has long since come to terms with the nomadic life. He works at home during the winter, but, each summer he crosses the Channel for circus work abroad.
