If it Can Happen in Coventry ...
It was a normal, busy Saturday afternoon in Coventry's modern shopping precinct. Suddenly a gang of youths attacked a young man. One of them pulled a knife and their victim lay dying.
That young man was Asian. Three weeks later 10,000 Asian families marched through the streets to demand protection. A city which once prided itself on racial harmony was being told it could face a crisis as serious as Brixton. or Southall.
Brass Tacks examines the frightening evidence of racial attacks and talks to those who face the task of restoring peace among the city's mixed population.

Four short films about music and memory.
A song, or a tune, made special because of the moment with which it's associated, becomes the personal property of the listener.
In the third programme of this series, Joan Williams from Bournemouth describes her special tune as one that she would dearly like to forget, because it reminds her all too vividly of the worst moment of her life. The scene, wherein the housemaid is caught in the act (of playing the parlour piano) is magically re-created, to lay Joan Williams's 50-year-old ghost.
