Narrated by Angela RipponCountry life in Victorian Britain was harsh and unromantic - particularly for those who toiled on the land. But today the life-style and skills of yesterday's countrymen are enjoying a new lease of life.
Is this revival just nostalgia, or are the farming methods of Victorian Britain making a practical comeback? Angela is joined by Joe Henson and Charlie Pinney whose 'Cart Horse Company' is in business to promote the benefits of horsepower. Together with Bernard Price they look at the world of the Victorian country-man and visit two of last summer's country events where yesterday's farming was on show.

Before the 1979 election, the Conservatives spoke of 'restoring the balance' between management and unions. Leaders on both sides of industry now detect a shift of power in favour of the bosses. Are Britain's managers seizing an opportunity to make industry more efficient? Or could the recession tempt them to go too far in the desire to reassert traditional authority? Steve Bradshaw reports for Newsweek on the new climate of British industrial relations.

by Beryl Bainbridge and Philip Saville
Starring Siobhan McKenna as Bridget Hitler
with Maurice Roeves as Adolf Hitler

Adolf Hitler had an Irish sister-in-law. That much is fact. But two interviewers challenge claims made by Bridget in her journal. An unusually intimate picture of Hitler's family life emerges - but is it true?
Television's newest technical devices help to create an exciting study in truth, illusion, fact and fantasy.
