A new series of ten films set in one of Britain's top boarding schools for boys.

D. F. ('Goldie') Goldsmith, MA (Oxon) and Sub-Warden of Radley is the scourge of the third XI and the ayatollah of the fourth form. He owes his success as coach and pedagogue to his distinctive and eccentric style of teaching - a mixture of abuse, raillery, mock-despair and the unexpected.

For 'Goldie' regulates his realm with a system of rewards and punishments based on cricket, the turf and the fortunes of Ipswich Town Football Club.

But in his 30th year at Radley, 'Goldie' takes stock of his position. Was a seat at the Warden's right hand to be the pinnacle of his career? He applies and is accepted as Headmaster of another school. It is the end of one of Radley's best-loved institutions.

After weeks of delay the longed-for mail arrives, eagerly pounced on by the happy recipients. There's nothing quite like a letter from home to lift the spirit and warm the heart.

Investigates, Discovers, Questions

This week: The Doctors' Code

Should parents of a girl of 15 be told that she asked to be put on the pill? Should a criminal who seeks help from a doctor be reported to the police? Should cancer patients be told they are being used in experiments? Should employers be shown the medical records of employees?

Every day doctors, nurses and administrators have to make difficult ethical decisions. In the past they have often jealously maintained that they are the only people qualified to make these judgments.

But now the British Medical Association has published an ' ethical-handbook' available to patients, and has invited Man Alive to debate these dilemmas with those who face them, and those who are affected by them. Nick Ross questions members of the profession and Harold Williamson talks to patients and their families.
