Gentlemen, Lift Your Skirts
The tiny Williams team from Didcot won every championship last year with their skirted racing cars. Now the Paris-based ruling body of the sport has banned the skirt and thrown this new technology into disarray. Horizon spent the winter with Williams and their World Champion driver Alan Jones. What is the essence of a modern racing car? How can they improve the performance for 1981 - with skirts lifted?

Search for the World's Deepest Cave
In the remote jungles of Papua-New Guinea, immense rivers, swollen by tropical rains, bore through vast mountain ranges.
In 1979 an Australian-led expedition set out to explore one of those rivers, the Atea, downward from the point where it disappears with a thunderous roar into the depths of the earth. For a month they probed through echoing caves as large as cathedrals and tunnels so tight it was impossible to take a full breath. They discovered more than 20 miles of caves; but could they prove it to be the deepest cave in the world?

1: Moss Side
Moss Side, like Rampton, Broad-moor and Carstairs, is one of Britain's ageing special hospitals. A state institution in which people defined as violently subnormal and criminally insane are isolated from the rest of us.
In the first programme ever filmed inside a special hospital, Eric Rob son reports on the ' lifers ' of Moss Side - some convicted of horrific crimes, others, in the same wards, guilty of nothing more than being an administrative nuisance.
Patients as young as 12 and as old as 80, are side by side in a hospital where security, not treatment, appears to be the priority. Film cameraman DAVID cox Film editor BRUCE RAWLINGS Director GERRY TROYNA
