What does a missile silo in South Dakota have to do with a secondhand store in Moscow? Or Moroccans mining in the desert with a guerrilla camp in Angola? Twelve BBC foreign correspondents are back in London with special film reports on what's been happening behind the headlines in the places where they live. What were the stories that really counted last year? Who are the people to watch out for in 1975? The programme is introduced by the BBC's chief European correspondent, Charles Wheeler : in the studio with him are Brian Barron (Asia)
Jim Biddulph (Foreign Affairs) Noel Clark (Eastern Europe)
Robert Elphick (Western Europe) Bob Friend (Australia)
John Humphrys (North America) John Osman (Southern Africa) Adrian Porter (South America) David Sells (Middle East)
