Tonight's choice under the theme of Bathing is:
Matisse (1869-1954) Bathers by the River at the Arts Institute, Chicago
Matisse never ' went abstract' like many of his contemporaries, but this monumental rough-hewn slab of a picture shows how he could make a flat, impersonal decoration into something that was very much alive - artificial but a bond with life. Written and presented by Edwin Mullins
Director BILL MORTON
(Tomorrow: Sotatsu's ' Waves o) Matsushima ')

A series of six films about English communities where the past is still strongly reflected in the present.

This collection of 13 villages grew up as a woollen mill community - an enclave of Yorkshire-men spilled over the Pennines into the cotton county of Lancashire. Woollen textiles have always been a precarious business and in a recession, family firms like J.F. & C. Kenworthy struggle for survival; so while the Kenworthys, father and son, struggle to keep an apparently busy mill going, their head loom-tuners' 'hobbies' begin to look more and more like an insurance policy.

Brian Trueman talks to both mill owners and workers about their hopes and fears for the mill, and for a community very conscious of its traditions.

Hello Universe!
Are there intelligent beings in other parts of the universe? Twenty years ago, radio telescopes gave us the means to receive, and make, galactic telephone calls. So far, no one has called us - and no one answers when we call.
But most scientists are convinced .they are there. From present knowledge of ' life, the universe, and everything ' they estimate that the galaxy is swarming with life. So where is everybody? Some of them, at least, should have paid us a visit, but evidence for flying saucers is disappointingly nebulous. Are they out there listening to the blare of TV signals radiating from our noisy planet? Or is it possible that, after all, we are alone-that the galaxy's first inter-stellar spaceships will be ours?
