A series of six films in which English families and communities still look remarkably different from each other.
3: Hoghton, Lancashire
In 1978, Sir Bernard de Hoghton succeeded to the oldest baronetcy in England. But when he holds a banquet to commemorate the knighting by James I of a loin of beef (hence ' sirloin '!) at Hoghton Tower, the 14th baronet is not remembering how his ancestor landed in the Fleet Prison for debt as a result of the feasting, but calculating how much this ' do ' will raise towards repairing the £100,000-worth of dry rot above his head.
Brian Trueman talks to Sir Bernard about his problems and his determination.

The saga of an American family by Alex Haley.

A dramatisation in six parts based on one man's search for his roots which led to a best-selling book and a highly successful television series on both sides of the Atlantic.

1776: Kunta Kinte is now 30 years old and still rebellious. He tries yet again to escape and this time his punishment seems certain to put an end to any further attempts to run away.

Halifax v Hull Kingston Rovers
Hull KR, holders of the BBC2 Trophy and a first division side with some great individual players -captained by Roger Millward , should, on paper, go through to the next round with ease against their second division opponents.
Halifax, however, have already beaten their first division opponents this season in the Yorkshire Cup, and with ground advantage are certain to make a match of it. Highlights of the whole match played earlier this evening at Thrum Hall.
