Zimbabwe -' Never in a thousand years ...'
At midnight tonight, the flag of the independent republic of Zimbabwe will be raised in Salisbury - an event which, Ian Smith promised the whites would never happen in a thousand years.
In the 15 years since udi, Rhodesia's whites have endured siege and sanctions, war and isolation, in the name of maintaining and protecting European standards of privilege and civilisation. Every attempt at settlement foundered on the white community's fear that majority rule would mean an end to their way of life. Tonight, white Rhodesians face the future they fought to avoid.

A series of ten new films about arts and crafts in Britain today. 5: Robert Bates
ROBERT BATES paints small, finely-detailed landscapes. His work has been compared with Samuel Pal mer, Stanley Spencer and Graham Sutherland. His paintings are not simply impressions of reality. They are both visionary and mysterious. They preserve the magic of the first joy of seeing.

This week: Battle of Braefoot Bay ' Safety rules from countries with experience of handling liquid gas are going to be ignored.'
' Maybe - but we desperately need the jobs.'
At present, enormous quantities of gas are burnt off above North Sea oil rigs. With government encouragement, Esso and Shell plan to pipe it to a handling plant in Fife, where it will be stored as a liquid at more than minus 100 degrees centigrade.
Thus, energy now being wasted will be utilised, and jobs desperately needed in the area will be provided. But evidence gathered by representatives of the several thousand people who live within a mile or two of the proposed plant shows that their lives could be at risk. For, if there is a serious accident, the resultant ' fire-ball ' would be catastrophic. How far should the well-intentioned interests of multi-national companies and Whitehall override the passionately-held and well-researched stand of local people? This film examines what is wrong with the present system of official safety studies, public enquiries and ministerial processes.
