The sleepy hamlet of Turnbotham Round prides itself on being ' a village without crime'. Well, at least no arrests have been made for over ten years, which to some people is not quite the same thing. Sergeant Dudfoot and his assistants, Albert and Harbottle, are told to make an arrest soon - or face the sack. Their attempts at crime-busting provide the basis for one of the most hilarious comedies in the history of British cinema.

Hugo Chapman (16) is neither interested, involved nor busy. He dislikes games and loathes the Combined Cadet Force He is bored with what Radley College has to offer, and likes nothing better than sitting on his own in his study. But he can't opt out
A lot of what goes on at Kacuey is compulsory - including one
CCF camp. So it is with no sense of pleasure or excitement that he joins eight members of Radley's
Royal Naval section for ten days of canoeing and hill-walking in Scotland, in the depths of winter.

The Hollywood version of what happened to Jews in the Third Reich caused argument and reflection wherever it was shown. But in West Germany, the reaction to the series was sensational.
Cautious television executives decided against ' blockbuster presentation and almost hid the American series away on the third channel. But at least half the population watched it and many thousands phoned in their comments, or wrote letters. In schools, factories and above all in homes, emotions and memories were released which many people had repressed for years.
Valerie Singleton reports on the effects of the series. She talks to Germans whose own lives were caught up in small but horrific ways with the Final Solution. And she tests the attitudes of one of the very few Jewish families left in Germany. The father was an inmate of Dachau - and still lives in the village nearby.

He's been described as the world's most inspiring guitarist, and is regarded with awe by his peers. When his contemporaries opted for post-Dylan protest in New York, he was living and learning with obscure elderly black blues players.
