Aberdeen: Living with Oil
Imagine the recession never happened, that Britain is booming. A Britain with new industries that are sources of fabulous wealth without scarring the landscape or polluting the environment; no crises, no widespread poverty; no racial tension; no hardcore unemployment-and a population with money in its pockets - in short, a Britain with a golden future. For one city in the United Kingdom this pipe-dream seems to be coming true. No city in the British Isles has seen such a transformation of its fortunes as Aberdeen. North Sea oil has pumped hundreds of millions of pounds into the granite city and has generated a quality of life for its inhabitants that is the envy of the rest of the country. How have the Aberdonians coped with this new phenomenon on their door-steps? Open Space goes to the oil capital of Europe to find out.

At 7.30 pm, on 5 July 1954, from a faded Victorian fun palace on the heights of Muswell Hill, North London, Richard Baker introduced Britain's first television news bulletin. Tonight he tells the story of how that original 'illustrated summary of the news' was transformed over the years into today's highly complex programme, used by millions as their main source of news about what's happening in the world.
