Introduced and narrated by Harold Evans, Editor, The Sunday Times
Four films about the world of journalism in different countries. Each is a portrait of a publication that stands outside the mainstream of its own society.
Launched in 1967 as a rock music magazine in San Francisco, Rolling Stone has grown up in ten years to become a major force in American publishing. It is the brainchild of Jann Wenner who began it when he was 21. He took the title from Bob Dylan 's song 'Like a Rolling Stone.' Wenner has been labelled the boy wonder of American journalism.' And Rolling Stone is certainly a success. It now sells over half-a-million copies every issue, and grossed over $12 million this year.

A programme about the law and legal issues - and how they affect all of us in everyday life.
If you have ever fallen foul of the law; or tried to get it on your side; or become lost in the maze of legislation which surrounds almost every aspect of life, you may need this programme.
Nick Ross , Norma Shepherd and Michael Molyneux set out to untangle legal wrangles, make sense of new laws - and talk to people who question the old ones.

Twiggy
Painted by Peter Blake
' You don't think I've gone down 'ill then? '
! You're prettier than ever; the trouble with watercolour is that you can easily lose it, and I think
I've just lost it.'
Concentration broken by TV lights, BLAKE graciously admitted defeat and took the picture away to finish it from photographs. During the session they talk about the 60s and one of the pop icons of that era, the ' Sgt Pepper' album cover. Blake explains how the myth surrounding the cover developed, and why they got it wrong.
