' As a boy I used to sit at the end of the runway watching the planes land and take off.'

Truck Drivin' Man
He has been called ' the last American hero '. With his country-style music and even his own radio stations, the long-haul trucker has become the mechanised cowboy of the 80s. But this story of three truckers and their journey from Portland in Oregon to Phoenix, Arizona, is also about the reality as well as the myths. Lead driver, Karl Weber , puts it this way:
' The small independent operator hasn't only got to fight the government bureaucratic machine and the big trucking companies, but also his own union-the Teamsters. And to keep in business, he's just got to keep on truckin'.'
For KARL wfiwr that can mean upwards of 200,000 miles a year.

A series of six programmes about Britain in the 1990s
5: Suddenly at Home The Early End of British Industry
Clive Sinclair , millionaire electronics innovator, believes that the 1990s will differ from the 1970s as profoundly as the 19th century differed from the 18th. Only a small percentage of the workforce will still be employed in industry. Seven million jobs will need to be found in ' products of the mind '. And, he says, contrary to popular thinking, Britain today is an excellent place to get new ventures under way. His ideas are challenged by three people also concerned with looking at our future.

Events in the life and work of Fred Dibnah, Bolton steeplejack 5: An Epic Journey Begun
The annual test of the stamina and solidarity of FRED DIBNAH and his family, as their steam engine and trailer leave the mill chimneys behind and roll away to shatter the tranquillity of rural Cheshire. This is the old engine, the roller which Fred spent 14 years restoring and which he expects to repay him with ' a form of immortality ':
' When I'm long gone dead it will still be here. Even if they drop the Bomb it would blow all the houses down but just roll this over into a ditch somewhere, and if there were anybody left they would eventually find it and sort of say, ' Mm, this is interesting. What were they like when they made these?'

Forty Minutes ...of documentary. A series of films portraying issues, institutions and individuals.
Roedean is Britain's most famous public school for girls. It is exclusive, expensive and draughty. Sited on a bleak outcrop of the South Downs, it looks down with a faint disapproval on nearby racy Brighton. But Roedean made a self-inflicted dent on its public image when it appointed a headmaster, having allowed the first male teacher in the classroom just over ten years before.
The Roedean Ethos still lives on, however, and this film conveys what it feels like to be a school-girl there. Some of today's 400 Roedean girls make known their feelings on the pressures of the classroom and social life, of 'crushes' and friendships, of conformity and success.
A comedy film scries in which a group of irreverent young lawyers join an old-established law firm. starring Wilfrid Hyde White as Emerson Marshall , with Martin Short as Tucker Kerwin Alley Mills as Leslie Dunn

When fire breaks out at the law firm's offices, everyone is trapped. Mr Marshall does his best to cheer up his staff and is disappointed by the lack of response from a singularly unappreciative audience.
