Wales v Scotland France v Ireland
Scotland have won only once in Wales since 1937 and they cannot feel confident of achieving victory over an experienced Welsh XV that has already inflicted heavy defeats on both Australia and England this season. The Scots, however, are tenacious and could be the side that upsets the Welsh hopes of the Grand Slam.
Victory over Scotland in January put new heart into the French, who suffered a 25-points-to-6 defeat by Ireland last year. Today they will be trying to avenge that defeat and make a serious challenge for this year's championship. Commentator at the National Stadium, Cardiff BILL MCLAREN

Introduced by Melvyn Bragg The Ik
The Ik are an African tribe, living in Uganda, who were forced by a political diktat in 1946 to give up their traditional life as hunters to become farmers overnight. This led to a complete change of life style and the breakdown of society, as the West recognises it, in order to avoid death by starvation.
Colin Turnbull , the anthropologist, lived with the Ik between 1964 and 1967 and his book The Mountain People is the basis for PETER BROOK 'S production of The Ik now playing in London.
Mr Brook's cast tell it with a dramatic simplicity that is quite stunning. (DAILY MAIL) There is no escape. As the world grows harder and hungrier day by day, we are all involved in the fate of Brook's doomed African tribe.
(DAILY EXPRESS)
COLIN TURNBULL is interviewed by MELVYN BRAGG and scenes from the play illustrate their discussion. with MALICK BAGAYOGO , MICHELE COLLISON MIRIAM GOLDSCHMIDT

A series made specially for the BBC regions and now seen for the first time throughout the country. Tonight from BBC North West The Landau Lads
The candy flossers and kiss-mequickers flood the Golden Mile at Blackpool. They ebb and flow around a collection of old-fashioned carriages drawn by horses who can step a yard high. The lads who drive the Landaus bring a refreshingly varied style into a world where people are often drearily pigeon-holed.
JACKIE DOLAN explains why he is a reluctant hairdresser and an enthusiastic John Wayne. BRUCE DOLAN tells how he became a master farrier and a pig farmer. BOBBY JACKSON explains the finer points of tatting and delivers sentimental SOngS. JOHNNY GALLIMORE recounts his experiences as a lion-tamer, clown and connoisseur of horse-flesh.
