From Normandy to Provence and back again...
Johnny Morris explores some well-known and some lesser-known parts of the country.
The unusual farms of Coulon, the vineyards of St Emilion, the cliff-hanging village of Rocamadour, and the remarkable Gorges du Tarn are just a few of the pleasures Johnny finds along 'the minor roads' as he makes his way south.

The Other Way
It's a rare event with growing fuel and food shortages to meet an optimistic economist. However, Dr E. F. Schumacher , author of Small is Beautijul, is guardedly hopeful about the future. He thinks a more appropriate use of modern technology could not only make us more self-sufficient, but even make the working week an experience which people actually enjoy.
Utopian dream, or practical solution to many of the problems which face us all? This film, with examples ranging from perhaps the most extraordinary tractor in the world to home-made bread, will give you the chance to decide for yourself if Schumacher is correct yet again -after all, he's the man who 16 years ago accurately predicted our current energy crisis.
