Captives in the Country Presented by Eric Robson
It's summertime.
In the next few weeks you might be planning to get away from it all in the heart of rural Britain. If the sun shines, you will probably envy the calm, the peace and the beauty of the lifestyle of those who live there. You might even be tempted, if you have the money, to buy yourself a holiday home in these idyllic surroundings. But it's not all roses in the country and Brass Tacks tonight invites you to spare a thought for the people who actually live there all the time. They are facing a crisis of survival.
Film cameraman GRENVILLE DOBSON Producer BRIAN GIBSON Editor ALAN DOBSON
