' Of all the places on earth, this is where I feel most at home.' So says poet, writer and broadcaster Kevin Crossley-Holland about Burnham Overy Staithe. This place, and the surrounding villages of Burnham Market, Norton, Sutton, and Deepdale are all set in the bleak and elemental landscape of north Norfolk. A personal film this-with a great affection for a special part of East Anglia's coast. Written by KEVIN CROSSLEY-HOLLAND

Ireland: Republicans and Loyalists The politics and the tragic problems of Ireland revolve around two powerful and deeply rooted traditions, Republicanism and Loyalism. They have such fundamentally opposing ambitions, that conventional politics seem powerless to resolve them.
In two programmes, Keith Kyle looks in turn at these two traditions which have been at the centre of the grim events of the past 12 years. Why is a British identity of such importance to the Loyalists? And why is a united Ireland such an anathema to them? What sort of state do Republicans seek? Why, for some Republicans, has violence become the means of trying to impose a united Ireland on the Loyalists? And are there, despite deep differences, any new grounds for hoping that some of the old barriers may be coming down?
In tonight's first programme, a report on the strength of the Republican tradition, and its place in Ireland today. Producer colin MARTIN Editor PETER IBBOTSON

If any bindings of mine were to be set side-by-side, I would hope that they would not be recognised as being the work of one person - that each would be as different as People from one another.'
FAITH SHANNON is a bookbinder and designer of startling originality. She makes a cover and binding for Lewis Carroll 's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, using velvet, leather, glass, paints and card to express one of the central themes in the book.

The Kids are United
A children's theatre in Islington, North London, that began as an out-of-school experiment 11 years ago, now has a waiting list of over a thousand. Middle-class parents queue up to enlist their children, but it's a theatre that stays close to its Cockney origins.
Anna Scher , was invited to take a small group of her Islington charges to Belfast. They took over a hall in one of the city's toughest areas and played host to 70 children from all over Ulster. For three days this small army of children, Catholic and Protestant, took a first exhilarating plunge into improvised drama, acting out their own scenes-scenes that had emotional roots in their daily lives.
This is the film and story of that dramatic weekend in Belfast - and its interesting sequel.
