'Bruised for life' is how one young naval officer describes his short term of service. In 1980 he was one of the first intake of a trial three-and-a-half year commission. By the end of that period only three of the original 21 are still in the Royal Navy. What makes a young man want to train as a naval officer? Why did so many leave? Three who stayed the course, but left in October, confront these questions in a voyage of rediscovery on the River Dart - from Dartmouth, where it all started, until they could go no further.

So wrote Dylan Thomas in the Prologue to his Collected Poems.
In this film, introduced by Rene Cutforth, some who were not strangers - friends, relatives and fellow-broadcasters, who in their various ways loved the poet - give an account of the person he really was. The portrait that emerges, enriched by Thomas's own voice in poetry and prose, is different from the generally accepted picture of the inspired and irresponsible drunkard who somehow received a commemorative stone in Westminster Abbey.

The second of eight programmes looking behind the doors of Westminster and Parliament.
Narrated by Anthony Quayle Those Five Hundred Kings
The root of our Parliamentary system dates from the moment the boy King Edward VI gave his chapel of St Stephen at Westminster to the Commons for their regular meeting place in 1547. Under a permanent roof a wilful Parliament developed, whose members King James I described as ' those five hundred kings '.
This week the story continues of one of the most extraordinary buildings in the world.
