A Pattern of Building
Written and presented by Alec Clifton-Taylor 5: Totnes, Devon
Totnes, in a fine landscape setting on the southern edge of Dartmoor, was founded by the Saxons close to an important crossing on the River Dart. What gives Totnes its special identity is slate, quarried locally, and hung vertically, often in decorative patterns on many of the old and originally timber-framed houses. Inside some of these houses there is a series of handsome plaster ceilings. Totnes also has, unusually for England, some covered shopping arcades known as ' 'piazzas' and an ancient Guildhall, and ' while it isn't quite one of the most beautiful of our small towns', says ALEC CLIFTON-TAYLOR, ' it is one Of the most distinctive and the preservation of its individuality is vital '.
A TV phenomenon. (TIME OUT) Exquisite series of painstakingly planned excursions. (BUILDING) Executive producer BRUCE NORMAN Producer DENIS MORIARTY

Each of these song parodies has been filmed on location, and tonight Neil sings of the dreams of an art student in 'Cezanne - says Anne', domestic bliss in 'Love is getting deeper', of how to stop in 'Keep on rocking', how to take off in 'UFO Shanty', and of what makes a person so 'Spontaneous'. His guests tonight are The Cambridge Buskers,

Known to the Police Presented by Eric Robson
Criminal records should be records of persons convicted of crimes ... but increasingly police records encompass persons simply suspected of crime, those who stand bail for others or who are seen in their company, even people who go to the most innocuous of political meetings.
In a year when plans are being considered throughout the police service for transferring manual records on to computers, with their potential for faster and more precise access, Brass Tacks asks just where the lines should be drawn between the acceptable, the questionable, and the downright objectionable.
Film cameraman DAFYDD HOBSON Producer DAVID GEEN Editor ALAN DOBSON BBC Manchester
If you've got a point of view let's hear it. All participating BBC local radio stations will have a phone-in continuing the Brass Tacks debate (details on local radio page of RADIO TIMES). Alternatively, writetoBrassTacks-ReturnCall. BBCtv, Oxford Road, Manchester M60 1SJ. (Return Call next Saturday will report back on uhat t/ou think)
