A series of five programmes
Phil Drabble goes to the dogs. He looks behind the scenes of Greyhound Racing at Birmingham's Perry Barr Stadium , where he discovers that a top greyhound can cost as much as £6,000 and that the margin between winning and losing is counted in hundredths of a second.
Away from fancy prices and big betting, at a social club in the heart of the Black Country, Phil also rediscovers a world more reminiscent of his younger days - when whippet racing attracted a whole breed of men and dogs, whose hobby became a way of life.

Recorded at the Windmill Theatre, Great Yarmouth.

The ultimate Hollywood gangster movie, and one of the most successful and influential films of the last decade.
To the urgent rhythm of Earl Scruggs's 'Foggy Mountain Breakdown', Bonnie and Clyde cut a swathe of robbery and violence through the American South of the early 1930s in Arthur Penn's much discussed, romanticised and lyrical account of their bloody career.
