Moya Lear is an unlikely tycoon. Ex-showgirl, now silver-haired widow, she has been the driving force behind the Learfan. It's a revolutionary aircraft into which the British government has sunk no less than
£50,000,000 in the hope that it will create 1,200 jobs in Northern Ireland. But the Learfan is late. And short of money. Moya's dream may not come true.

Presented by Chris Kelly with food specialist and cook Michael Barry and drinks expert Jill Goolden. What's wrong with our licensing laws and who wants to change them? Why is that oldest of all British take-aways - 'yer actual traditional fish 'n' chips' - almost a dish of the past? And what about these new-fangled non-alcoholic drinks - are they better than the real thing?
Just three of the stories in this week's blend of the topical, the delicious and the best value in the world of food and drink.

Ever condemned to be the butt of crude humour, or clad in the garb of awful euphemisms, at last the lavatory comes out of the closet. This documentary film reveals everything you ever wanted to know about them - where and how they are made, who invented them, and how the primitive privy was elevated to an art form. In a pilgrimage through Britain's loveliest lavatories, Lucinda Lambton celebrates the centenary year of the water closet, at long last paying the debt of gratitude to Britain's plumbing pioneers and sanitary magnificoes. Through her eyes the humble symbol of relief to the discomfited becomes an object of beauty and a delight to the eye.
