This week: On The Fiddle
The British people are on the fiddle to the tune of at least £1 million daily - according to a recent survey. Office workers pinch the stationery, supermarkets cheat their customers, even bus conductors and deckchair attendants iron out used tickets, reissue them, and pocket the profits. Some of us call it the perks of the trade: others say it's a symptom of a corrupt and immoral society. Certainly no job seems to be without its perks: fiddling extends from the workman pocketing his paintbrush to the managing director having his home painted by the firm's maintenance man.
Tonight we learn just who is on the fiddle - and how. And we ask if anything can be done about it.

In the heat of an African dawn, the animals, birds and insects start their daily ritual of life and death.
A gaudily-coloured chameleon stalks its prey-a grasshopper. A hippo wallows in a mud-bath. A battalion of ants attack and devour a fiddler crab. Lion cubs play while a pair of cheetahs hunt for food and a maribou stork duels with a scorpion.
This brilliantly-photographed film has just won the 1976 Academy Award for the Best Short Documentary.
When the Birmingham pub bombs exploded on 21 November, 1974 it was not just the face of Britain's second city which was scarred. The lives of survivors and bereaved were irrevocably changed in a split second.
The wife of a railwayman is widowed and left with three children; a factory worker loses his leg and his fiancee is killed; a young girl is blinded and severely injured.
Three victims show how they have begun to adjust to a new life they did not want in the course of-just a year.
