continues a season of classic murder mysteries starring
Warner Oland as one of the screen's most enduring detectives.
' Theory, like mist on eyeglasses, obscures facts.'
Nevertheless, Chan gropes his way firmly through this latest vintage stew of missing Egyptian artefacts, tombs of long-dead high priests and a plethora of strange supporting characters, occidental and oriental, adding their clouds of fog to the plot ...

This is the third in a series of six conversations with some of the grand old master photographers of this century.
Andreas Feininger
Andreas Feininger 's contribution to experimental photography has been a source of inspiration to photographers all over the world. He was one of the first to use telescopic lenses, creating stunning images of New York. In recent years he has concentrated on extreme close-up photography, revealing the beauty and function of nature.
At his home in America, he talks to Peter Adam about the possibilities of creative photography and about his unshakeable belief that the camera can enrich people's way of seeing.

The Benson and Hedges Masters from the Wembley Conference Centre
Twelve months ago,
STEVE DAVIS dominated the world of snooker. When he won the Masters at Wembley he held every major title in the game and it seemed that he was almost unbeatable. Now this is the only major title Davis holds and he will be hoping that 1983 will bring a return to his winning ways.
DOUG MOUNTJOY Or JOHN VIRGO should be providing the opposition in tonight's best-of-nine-frame quarter-final, and DAVID ICKE introduces highlights from the beginning of the match.

Starring Alan Rickman as Simon

A ringing phone after midnight can be a disturbing experience but until Simon, a successful barrister, hears from Macy, his friend from university days, he doesn't know just how disturbing. This call comes from a police station where Macy, an old political activist, needs help, legal help.
