Continuing a season of religious films, tonight starring Robert Taylor Deborah Kerr , Peter Ustinov Finlay Currie , Leo Genn
Marcus Vinicius , victorious after the British Wars, returns to claim his due in Rome. While waiting for Emperor Nero's summons to enter the city, he meets and falls in love with the beautiful Lygia, without knowing she has become a convert to a new religion - Christianity. Meanwhile, in Rome, the insane Nero dreams of burning down the Imperial City, so a new one, bearing his own name, can replace it. A cast of thousands, massive sets and dramatic action feature in this epic production set in the early, outcast years of the Christian faith.

The School on the Hill
The roots of violence and sectarian hatred in Northern Ireland lie deep in the apartheid of its educational system. For in Ulster Protestants go to Protestant schools, and Catholics go to Catholic schools. But overlooking the City of Belfast is Lagan College, the first school deliberately planned to integrate children of both faiths. Pupils, staff and governors are scrupulously balanced between Catholic and Protestant, and the curriculum equally reflects the ethos of both traditions.
But Lagan depends on charitable trusts to fund the bursaries for deprived children on both sides of the city and 1984 is a make or break year. Any day now the College can expect a letter that will seal its fate. If the Government rejects its plea for acceptance as a state-aided school, its future will be bleak, and one more scintilla of hope in Northern Ireland may be snuffed out.
