Small Beer
Phil Drabble is not very partial to keg beer; real ale brewed in traditional style is more to his liking.
Donnington Brewery in the Cotswolds started life 116 years ago, in a converted 16th-century cloth mill. Today Claude Arkell , the third generation of country brewers, has as much concern for the future of the landscape around him as he has for the present balance sheet of his small business.
PHIL DRABBLE looks behind the scenes of the brewery and relishes its beer in the local pubs which are at the heart of Cotswold rural life.

In the summer, a dedicated group of West Indians put on a musical play, In Transit, at the Commonwealth Institute in London. It was part of a black theatre workshop project-the first of its kind in Britain.
In Transit sets out to show some of the history, everyday life and attitudes of West Indians living in this country.
This film follows the company through the workshop period to the opening of the play. In the words of Don Kinch , the author of In Transit, the group explores ' not just the situation we as black people are all involved in now, but how we feel about it.'
