Fighting for Rights
• We were called coloured then, or gentlemen of colour ... To use the term black, well everybody disliked that. Black was a fighting word.'
This is the story of three remarkable black Americans who fought for equal rights and social justice for their people in the first years of this century. They were pioneers. There was Revels Cayton , the grandson of one of the first black senators, who worked through the labour movement; Lieutenant George Lee , who became one of the Deep South's most successful businessmen and a prominent Republican politician; and C. L. Dellums , who assisted at the birth of America's first black trade union - the International Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.

A new series of four 50-minute documentary films about ways the process of immigration affects people and the societies involved. 1: A Question of Colour
In this first programme a number of West Indian ex-servicemen and women describe their reception in Britain immediately after the war. They recall their hopes and fears and how they had to cope with the harsh reality of British attitudes to race and colour from the late 1940s to the mid 1960s.
The wider social background of these questions of race and discrimination is provided by interviews with Dipak Nandy , former Director of the Runnymede Trust
Professor Kenneth Little of Edinburgh
The Rt Hon Aubrey Jones (former MP) and by the extensive use of revealing archive newsreel and current affairs film material.

Tony Randall
A confirmed hypochondriac, mistakenly thinking he has only a few weeks to live, decides that a new husband must be found to look after his wife when he is gone. Out of this seemingly macabre situation comes a sparkling comedy film starring that most successful partnership, Rock Hudson and Doris Day - this time playing husband and wife.

Written by JOHN RUSSELL TAYLOR , Hitchcock's authorised biographer and narrated by Barry Foster who starred in one of his films.
Alfred Hitchcock died in 1980. He had rr.ade 53 full-length feature films-his career spanned almost the entire history of movie-making. He is probably the most famous film director of all time-his face as recognisable as the stars he used in his pictures. In this preview of an extensive television season of his films, he talks about his work and methods as the master of the thriller, and explains the thinking behind many of his most famous films, from the first British talkie. Blackmail, to such classics as Psycho, Rebecca, Notorious, Shadow of a Doubt and Dial M for Murder.
