A series of eight programmes drawn from 1920s and 30s home movies.
4: Sport
The amateur who turned the cameras on sport in the 1920s and 30s captured that unique innocence that the professional film-maker can never record. Tonight, we look fondly at the British and their games.
Rugger, football, Brands Hatch, Ascot, tennis, golf and cricket all come under the penetrating eye of the vintage cine camera. Written and narrated by JOHN JULIUS NORWICH

' All I Ask is a Tall Ship ...'
Last summer a beautiful old sail-training ship the Sorlandet, restored and re-rigged, sailed from south Norway to join the tall-ships races in the Baltic. Only the Captain had sailed the Sorlandet before; he had just seven days to teach his international crew of young trainees. This is the story of that week at sea seen by one of those aboard the ship, 74-year-old Stan Hugill , who had spent many years before the mast in square-rigged ships. Stan was wrecked in the Azores in 1929 when aboard Britain's last square-rigged merchant ship, Garthpool. For him, 51 years later, the voyage of the Sorlandet was a special adventure.

A Yesterday's Witness series of six programmes.
2: With the French Resistance
Towards the end of the Second World War the RAF Film Unit decided to make a feature length film about their part in supplying the French Resistance with arms and explosives for use against the occupying Germans. When they came to cast their film they chose a young man and woman, Harry Ree and Jacqueline Nearne , who had actually been parachuted into occupied France during the war to teach the Resistance how to make the best use of these supplies dropped by the RAF. Now, nearly 40 years after the war, with the help of the RAF's film, Ree and Nearne recall their lives with the French Resistance.

starring
Gene Hackman , Jennifer Warren
Hired by a former Hollywood starlet to find her daughter, Harry Moseby - football star turned detective - heads for Florida, where he finds the promiscuous teenager. Gradually Moseby, who has his own marital troubles, gets involved in the family's complicated and unhappy relationships - and an illegal smuggling activity. A brilliantly witty and topical screenplay lifts the film far above the level of a conventional thriller and allows Hackman to give one of his finest performances as the disillusioned detective.
