from Belfast
It's Good Crack!
Since the start of the troubles 15 years ago the media image of Belfast has been dominated by the bullet and the bomb. Hardly ever is there a mention of the 'crack' - otherwise known as a really great time.
Open Space took a film crew to the city and, with the help of people in the street, discovered where to go for a cracking time out.

with John Pitman
The last in the series of six films which go behind the scenes of places which are part of the British way of life. The Seaside
Despite the age of the jet and the cheap package tour, the population of Walton-on-the-Naze, a traditional little Essex seaside resort, still doubles during the summer season.
This film reflects a typical day at the sea front, with the people who have been coming here for years and the people whose job it is to entertain them and keep them happy.
It begins early in the morning when EILEEN FOWLER , the First Lady of Keep Fit, can be found on the beach, still practising what she started preaching back in the 50s.
We meet the Punch and Judy man , the boys who run the rides on the pier, the family who run a Wild West Show at the back of the car park, and Brian and Charlie, the resident entertainers who love doing the season 'because we get just as much enjoyment here as we would at the Palladium or Las Vegas'.

continues a major season of his films tonight with Jacqueline Bisset Victoria Principal
'Maybe this isn't the way it was ... it's the way it should have been.' So begins the story of the self-proclaimed hanging Judge, who terrorised a small West Texas town at the end of the last century. Outlaws and strangers receive short shrift at the hands of Roy Bean - but no one suffers more cruelly than those who criticise his one and only love, the actress Lillie Langtry. John Huston blends facts and fantasy in this evocative portrait of the violent and lawless West, and Newman gives one of his most mature performances in the title role.
