with Peter Seabrook in Guernsey
The island of Guernsey is nine miles long and seven miles from the east to the west coasts. It is famed for its tomatoes, pot plants and cut flowers. It is not surprising that an island devoted to horticulture should contain many lovely private gardens. This evening Peter visits two of these gardens and talks to their owners about the problems, and the joys, of gardening on a small island thirty miles off the Cherbourg peninsula.

What characteristics do you share with the stars born under the same sign of the zodiac?
Michael Aspel introduces a new entertainment based on astrology and other predictive arts.
Tonight astrologer Fredrick Davies and clairvoyant Kim Tracey attempt to assess the personality and to establish the identity of the two mystery star guests. Armed only with the barest information about the time, date and place of birth, what can FREDRICK DAVIES tell about the character, past life and future of each guest? KIM TRACEY will be making similar predictions, based on the casting of the Runes, ancient Nordic stones whose origin is shrouded in uncertainty.

Six films about inner cities now-seen through the eyes of those who live and work in them.
The Liverpool Agreement
A city hospital at the centre of industrial action. The place - Liverpool.
Elsewhere hospitals have shut down or face picket lines. BROAD-GREEN HOSPITAL struggles on only because union and management hang on to a precarious agreement that prevents complete breakdown. But on the wards bitterness is felt. Behind the demands for more money lie the deeper frustrations within the NHS.
