A series of five films about the historical evidence provided by the cinema newsreel.
1: Before Your Very Eyes
In the 1930s, to see events in far-away places and to hear the famous men of the time was a new and revolutionary experience. It was an experience made possible by the cinema newsreel, and one shared by 20 million people every week.

A series of three film reports by Trevor Philpott 1: The Hunter
Even in these days of frozen foods and factory farming, somewhere inside every man beats the heart of the hunter. Men still crave to get out into the wilds with a gun to kill something. From the big-game lands of Africa to the grouse moors of Scotland hunting is a growing industry.
This File looks at the hunters and hunting in Britain, Europe and America - what they hunt, how they hunt and above all.... why.

Investigates, Discovers, Questions With ANNA FORD ,JEREMY JAMES
JEANNE LA CHARD , JACK PIZZEY
NICK ROSS , HAROLD WILLIAMSON This week: Children of Gold
Some mothers do have 'em-babies who won't sleep, demand constant attention, go to school and disrupt lessons. Sometimes these children are also highly-sensitive and exceptionally bright. But if they are not allowed to develop at their own extraordinary pace they can be a problem to everyone including themselves. Plato called them ' children of gold'. Surprisingly, these days some parents and teachers readily confess that the fastest learners are often a source of heartache and unhappiness. Yet these are the children who, in theory, should be the country's greatest asset.
