by Dr Nicholas Humphrey Four Minutes to Midnight
' Do the frightening facts about the arms race, which show we are rushing headlong towards a precipice, make any of those responsible for this disastrous course pull themselves together and reach for the brakes? '
Lord Mountbatten, speaking in Strasbourg a few weeks before he was assassinated, answered his question with a simple ' No '.
In this lecture, DR HUMPHREY asks how the answer can be ' No '. How is it that we have become apathetic en masse to the threat of the nuclear holocaust?

26: Not the Nine O'Clock News
The inimitable four old codgers take another turn down memory lane.
John Morgan looks at the global battle for human rights in this, the last of the four Prisoners of Conscience programmes, and asks those most concerned whether there is any hope for the future.
In a horrified reaction to the atrocities of the Second World War the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948. It promised fundamental and equal rights for all, but the promise has not been kept. In the last ten years alone over three million men, women and children have been killed by the State or simply disappeared, and in much of the world arbitrary arrest, torture, death and disappearance are common tools of government.
