5: Mrs Isabel North, Gold and Silver Embroideress and Mrs Florence Doyle, Military Accoutrement Maker
In an embroidery workshop near Coventry, Isabel North supervises work in gold and silver wire creating emblems and banners: while in London, Florence Doyle hand-sews military and ceremonial accoutrements, making aiguillettes, sword knots and robe ornaments. Both work for a company which has held the Royal Warrant for five reigns 'for the supply of gold and silver laces, insignia and embroidery'. They describe and reveal their skilful crafts.

Tommy Trinder was another music-hall comedian who made a series of popular films for Ealing Studios. His cockney humour combined with the robust direction of Harry Watt makes Fiddlers Three a broader comedy than most Ealing productions.

A true experience relived by Duncan Carse
Sixteen years ago DUNCAN CARSE was marooned in South Georgia, a remote island on the edge of the Antarctic: one of the most inhospitable places on earth.
Earlier last year he returned to South Georgia to tell us the story of his epic 116-day fight for survival; of psychological stresses in appalling weather conditions and of a girl called ' Fran.'
