A Pattern of Building
Written and presented by Alec Clifton-Taylor
6: Ludlow, Shropshire
' Local stone ... bricks baked from the local clays, oaks from the forests ... wherever local materials were used they look right.'
Ludlow, in the centre of the Welsh Marches, is probably ALEC CLIFTON-TAYLOR'S favourite small town. It exemplifies precisely his concept of a pattern of building - stone for the church, the bridges and the castle wood for the medieval houses, often carved with great exuberance as at the Feathers Hotel; plaster for the ceilings and brick for the handsome houses of the Georgian town. But there are Victorian shockers in ' polychrome machine-made bricks in jazzy patterns' and the Market Hall, apostrophised by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner as ' Ludlow's bad luck '.
You actually want to go there and use your own eyes. (TIME OUT) Purest pleasure imaginable. (BUILDING) Executive producer BRUCE NORMAN Producer DENIS MORIARTY

Astrology
Presented by Eric Robson
Interest in astrology is booming - you can now take evening classes in the subject. It is being used in management selection, psychotherapy, even marriage guidance. But does it work? Astrologers claim that recent scientific research suggests that the planets do affect our personalities.
Brass Tacks asks whether we should start to take this ancient art seriously, and will be mounting a live experiment to test the claim that people born at - the same time on the same day should be alike.

' Even the best bits of Bournemouth are actually in Poole! ' says Lord Stokes. It's a town with everything: leisure and retirement resort, light industrial area, thriving port.... Now it even has oil!
The price is a conflict of interests, which they're trying to reconcile in a new plan for Poole Harbour. So the former head of British Leyland switches from car to custom-built cruiser to examine the competing claims. Then he takes to his bicycle to explore the lovingly-preserved Old Poole.
