Music as Therapy
' Music is therapy and has always been so.' Yehudi Menuhln introduces the second of two programmes looking at music and the handicapped. The healing application of music has a long history and yet it is only in recent times that its therapeutic value has been rediscovered. At centres throughout the country, we see the extraordinary effect participation in music can have on mentally handicapped children and adults. Children who do not respond to normal human contact are reached and moved through music. Narrated by Alexander John

Bernard Levin in conversation with Lord George-Brown
' A man of first-class ability, a forceful and indeed imaginative administrator ... his strengths far exceeded his weaknesses.'
(SIR HAROLD WILSON )
As mp for Belper for 25 years, Deputy Leader of the Labour Party and minister in various posts, including Foreign Secretary, LORD GEORGE-BROWN was one of the most influential and colourful politicians of his time. But then he resigned from his cabinet post, lost his parliamentary seat. joined the House of Lords and eventually resigned from the Labour Party altogether. Now retired, but by no means inactive, he can reflect on a long period of political life, and comment on current events.

Nine programmes from the BAFTA award-winning documentary series Circuit Eleven Miami 1: Henry Peelle (86) is found sadistically slain in his bedroom overlooking Miami Beach. In six weeks Thomas Perri is arrested. But the case against Perri can only stick because his accomplice, Stephen Weiss , is a ' snitch ' - he's turned State's evidence. Weiss's testimony can send Perri to the chair-now a stark reality, since John Spenkelink was electrocuted in May 1979.
Film cameras are in court as the shadow of death hangs over Perri, and his Defence strains every nerve and bends every rule of procedure to needle Weiss and discredit his evidence with accusations of deviant sexual practices. To a British audience the scene is at once alien and familiar.
