A Pattern of Building Written and presented by Alec Clifton-Taylor 1: Chichester, Sussex
' The cathedral apart, brick and flint are what give Chichester its essential character; the right materials in the right place.'
England has more unspoilt towns than any country in the world. In this series, the architectural historian ALEC CLIFTON-TAYLOR has made a personal choice of six, based not so much on the historical appeal of a fine cathedral, a castle or a church but the range and quality of the ordinary domestic houses and the use made of the traditional building materials of England - stone, brick, wood and plaster. ' I'd like every programme to be an exercise in looking.'
At Chichester the local stone was flint; the Romans used it for the city walls, and it is still being used today. The cathedral is mainly built of imported limestone from Caen in Normandy, while the Georgian houses with their fan-lights and doorways - ' Chichester's special delight' - are built from some of the finest brick in the country. All in all, ' a perfect pattern of English building'.

A Whisper from Space
Believe it or not, it is now known how and when the universe began. The ' big bang' theory of an exploding universe has been richly confirmed by a whisper of radiation that is all that remains of that first flash.
This programme tells the bizarre story of how the radiation was discovered and how scientists were able to prove an event that happened so long ago.
Professor Philip Morrison helps explain the concepts with the aid of a steam train, a pottery kiln and a length of chain.
The new and exciting discoveries still leave further questions. What happened before the ' big bang '? How will the universe end? Narrator RAY MOORE
