Plus a visual commentary for those who cannot hear. With Angela Rippon
On Thursday 24 October, 1929, Winston Churchill visited the New York Stock Exchange and described the scene as 'one of surprising calm'. During that day 13 million shares were traded, Friday saw similar heavy trading, and on Monday the real disaster began. Ten thousand million dollars were knocked off the value of shares... the Wall Street Crash had happened.
Peter Hobday reports on the events of those calamitous days 50 years ago, and considers with Professor Milton Friedman and Professor Kenneth Galbraith the causes of the crash, and whether it could happen now.
Lawrence of Arabia Didn't Come Down this Far
Most of us dream of making a fortune, one day. Tony Hutchin son, a carpenter from Newcastle, set out to find his crock of gold in the Arabian Gulf, at the end of a one-year contract. This film tells Tony's story, starting with his last weekend at home with his wife and children, and following his first three weeks in his new job.
But it's also the story of Kuwait, the tiny desert emirate which is one of the richest countries in the world. In July Kuwait is at its hottest. They say it's so hot you can listen to the sound of your own brains boiling inside your skull. And TONY HUTCHINSON had to start working in that heat, in a foreign land, with a strange language and a different way of life.

Pete Seeger is perhaps more responsible than anyone else for the vogue of folk music in America. His songs 'Where have all the flowers gone ' and ' If I had a hammer' have become anthems and express his acute sense of social justice. Today he uses his music to help raise money for causes in which he believes.
In June of this year, to support his campaign to clean up the River Hudson, he sang at a local water-side concert and at a professional music festival before 16,000 people. Among his guests are Taj Mahal John Hartford, Hedy West
