From Shepherd's Bush to Simla 1: Calcutta to Mirzapur
Robert Robinson abandons tne comfort of the studio to make a journey across India, from the maelstrom of Calcutta to the cool of the Himalayan hill-station, Simla.
Tt was the journey the ruling British instituted 150 years ago to escape the steam heat of Calcutta. Today, in an eventful and often amusing expedition, Robinson examines the extent to which the legacy of the British remains.

Eight films presented by Fred Housego
The rise and fall of a medieval village. To any visitor driving through Swavesey today it is as ordinary a village as any. it nas a manor house, parish church and market square. But, as Fred Housego found from Jack Ravensdale and members of the Swavesey Local History Society, if you know what to look for there are plenty of clues to a rich and varied past which reveal that Swavesey may not be just an ordinary Fenland village after all.

' Think of what is happening in Glasgow as what will happen to all the cities of Britain in 15 years' time.'
Once there was a small fishing village two miles outside Glasgow called Govan. In the last 40 years of the 19th century it grew to a dense and thriving town of 90,000, the heart of shipbuilding Clydeside. Two wars came and went and then, as swiftly and as strangely, the community of Govan dwindled and began to die.
This film tells the story of Govan through the voices of the people who live and have worked there. It is a story of the intimate threads that bind work, housing and people together, and how a community, shattered by industrial decline and bureaucratic indifference, fights for survival.

The Great Cover-up
There are no limits to the agony and expense endured by some men to conceal from the world that they are losing their hair.
They will irrigate the dying crop with globules of miracle ' gloup
They will sink to the deception of toupee and hair-weave. They will bow the neck to follicle-plucker and bare the pate to the follicle transplant. And when the game is finally up and the onset of baldness signifies to all youth flight, some will even pay to be scalped, excising by surgery the domes barren patch, and sewing together the hair-raising skin in one trans-cranial seam.
This story of four men's motives in combating their hair-loss is told with sympathy and insight by documentary producer John Percival. For he is a closet-baldy, and this is his ' coming out'.
