5: There is No God But God
According to one estimate, one seventh of the population of the world is Muslim. The search for Islam takes RONALD EYRE to two places in Egypt. In Cairo he visits the ancient university of El Azhar , a bastion of Islamic orthodoxy, and meets a remarkable married couple - both of them doctors and devout Muslims. The search leads to a small village on the edge of the Sahara where life is lived as it has been for centuries according to the Islamic ideal of community.

Election Special - Unemployment
Peter Hobday reports on the problems of unemployment in the United Kingdom. At present there are almost one-and-a-half million people out of work and some economists forecast that that figure will continue to rise in the next five years to two-and-a-half million or more.
In The Money Programme economists and businessmen analyse the reasons for the rising army of unemployed. And with leading politicians they consider the effectiveness of the policies that the political parties are putting forward to counter this trend. Reporters Paul Barry
