gets to the heart of an issue, with Brian Trueman. Story reporters
MIKE DORNAN , ERIC ROBSON live from the Manchester studios. In this series we've already looked at parole for Myra Hindley ; sex education; unemployed schoolleavers; the state of our health; punk rock; Belfast and the troubles; football; this year's holiday problems; and the future of Rhodesia. That still leaves a lot of subjects affecting us all we've not yet had time for. For this last programme in the series the decisions on what topic we finish with have yet to be made - but whatever we look at, it will be your views that count. And as always you can let us know what you think while the programme is televised live - by telephoning [number removed].
