The Men's Downhill and Men's Slalom from Kitzbuhel
'This is the big one'... never has this sporting cliche been more meaningful, for the Hahnenkamm is the meanest mountain on the ski-racing circuit. Only the brave survive the ultimate downhill test of courage and skill, and few will forget the spectacular scenes 12 months ago when Austrian legend
FRANZ KLAMMER recaptured the Kitzbiihel crown at the ripe old age of 30! David Vine describes the ups and downs of Hahnenkamm weekend in the Austrian Tyrol.

Harold Williamson presents another film about people determined to achieve a personal goal.
Maureen Hiron was forced to give up teaching because of an accident. So the former games mistress became a games inventor. She and her husband Alan hit the jackpot with their first brainchild and happily ploughed their profits back into launching two more board games. With E35million a year at stake - and that's only in this country - competition in the games business is fierce. The Hirons were to find out the hard way that you need more than enthusiasm and a good idea to survive.
'Actually inventing the games is the easy part.' Film editor GRAHAM DEAN Producer TERENCE O'REILLY
Time, climate and the needs of the Irish have fashioned a magical island. Cast free when the ancient bridge from Britain sank, it still holds within its saucer of ice-scoured rocks the animals and plants that followed the retreat of the glaciers.
There are Irish deer, Irish stoats and Irish mountain hares, but no snake ever came to trouble the people who cut the forests, fished and farmed. They invented a land of fairy tales, but there are real mysteries too: a strange meeting of the Arctic and the Mediterranean in a moonscape of white rock called the Burren; the unbroken ebb and flow of wildfowl from this mild winter haven; and the daunting sprawl of the bogs - unbeautiful to some, yet valuable to all, fragile wildernesses in a land wild with change.
