How do you get your face on to the cover of a magazine? Some girls are 'discovered' in the street, while others at model schools will never make it. 'The ego is nothing, it's the money that really counts', according to New York model boss John Casablancas. So how do today's rising stars see their prospects? And how does Celia Hammond 's brilliant modelling career in the 60s look with the benefit of hindsight?

Tomorrow a public inquiry will begin in Suffolk to decide whether or not we in Britain build an American-designed nuclear power station.

"Horizon" asks: are we going to build the wrong reactor, for the wrong reasons, at the wrong time? Despite the fact that a similar type of reactor destroyed itself at Three Mile Island in 1979, our Central Electricity Generating Board argues that we are buying tried and tested technology.

But "Horizon" discovers that a continuing series of design changes have priced it out of the market in America; that no American electrical utility has ordered a PWR since 1978; that many American designers have been dogged for years by an Achilles' heel which affects its safety and economics; and that our neighbours the French are getting cold feet over the scale of their national nuclear programme, based on a similar reactor.

Meanwhile, the most dependable reactor in the world - from Canada - has been totally ignored.

The first of six programmes.
She was four when she came to Yorkshire, a small heathen to be saved and civilised by white Christian society. Ostracised as a child - for the heathen was black, therefore dirty and devilish - she learned resilience and independence of mind. Now in her 70s and living in London's East End, Kathleen Wasama resists with humour and a sense of common humanity the prejudices about black people she finds still entrenched in English society.
