A personal view of maternity services in the 80s by Peter Huntingford 2: The Conveyor Belt
For many doctors and women antenatal care has become a bore. Some women get too much, others too little. There's a lot of waiting around, often to little benefit. There are, however, some schemes which are both useful and acceptable to mothers, doctors and midwives.

Since the Andrea Doria, Italy's most luxurious ocean liner, sank on 26 July 1956, two questions have remained unanswered. Would the Doria have survived the collision with the Swedish ship Stockholm had a crucial watertight door not been missing? Is there a fortune in cash and semi-precious stones locked away in two of her safes? This is the exciting story of 'The Doria Project' - a dangerous expedition set up to find answers to these questions.
The Doria's greatest secret will be revealed on tomorrow's Breakfast Time when one of the safes recovered from the wreck will be opened by an expert safe-cracker.
