Spanish Television - Breaking the Grip?
' Give me ten minutes on television and I could bring down the government', an eminent Economics Professor commented in Madrid, ' that's why I'm not asked to appear! '
If the Spanish press, radio and cinema are now virtually free, television remains largely controlled by the past. There have been changes since Franco's death -more coverage of home news, and scantily-clad girls are permitted but political freedom seems still a long way off. Most Spaniards have a lot to say about their television: Frank Gillard , in Madrid, spoke to some of them.

Investigates, Discovers, Questions With ANNA FORD, JEREMY JAMES
JEANNE LA CHARD , JACK PIZZEY
NICK ROSS , HAROLD WILLIAMSON This week:
Grow - or be Damned!
Invest! Expand! Modernise !
We've been told it endless times - with industrial growth lies th( promised land of full employment a healthy balance of payments prosperity for all. But some industrialists are holding back. Why? Because, they say, the rewards are negligible - and highly taxable; the ' disincentives ' make the risks not worth taking. As one company chairman puts it, ' No Minister is going to bail us out with L4 million if something goes wrong.'
Tonight, Man Alive asks three successful firms why they are standing still. If their attitudes are typical, it is worrying news for all of us - and it will take more than exhortation to get Great Britain Ltd going.
