Six films about living music
2- A New Sound from the East
Like most of the world's music, Indian classical music was never written down. It has been passed on from hand to ear, a treasured possession through the generations. Only in the last 30 years has it had an impact on the music we call our own. Imrat Khan comes from one of the most illustrious Indian musical families. His forefathers played for kings, and charmed tigers. Earlier this year, Imrat and his son and percussionist worked for three days with a group of Western students, exploring the sounds of Indian music and blending the instruments of East and West.

The fourth of 16 programmes Appleby Fair
Generations of horse dealers, gypsies and didicois have made their way annually to Appleby Fair in Cumbria. From all corners of Britain they come to meet friends, to show off their horses, and above all to slap hands on a deal.
PHIL DRABBLE meets some of the regulars-men like Jack Toon , whose lives and livelihood are bound up with horses. These colourful characters follow a way of life that still captures the spirit of their country roots.

Out of the Market?
The Labour Party has voted to take Britain out of the Common Market, without another referendum. Critics of the EEC claim it's costing Britain thousands of jobs, damaging our basic industries and pushing up the price of food.
Just how well is Britain doing out of the Market? Does North Sea oil
<mean we'd now be better off on our own?

by ELIZABETH BOWEN dramatised by WILLIAM TREVOR
Time is playing tricks on Mary. Around her the walls are crumbling- all the houses are being pulled down. Why does she insist on staying, caught in a dream about a family, years ago, out walking in the fields after the harvest? And who was Sarah, that beautiful young girl, whose sister couldn't bear that she was in love?

Isaac Foot 1880-1960
Isaac Foot served the West Country as Liberal Member of Parliament and as Lord Mayor of Ply-mouth. He was a radical man, remembered with affection for his staunch political ideals, his Methodism and his passion for books. But it is his contagious humour which is recalled by everyone who I knew him, including his famous sons, who have made their mark in government at home and abroad.
