A Preview
A passionate love story set against the glamorous highlife of the 20s is brought to life in a six-part BBC2 adaptation of F. SCOTT
FITZGERALD'S classic, starting next week.

Our sense of humour baffles them, our politics bother them, our preoccupation with tradition bemuses them.
Apparently, we don't wash, and we are morose and miserable even on holiday. On the other hand, we are polite, and kind to animals. Each week, Derek Jameson looks at the way foreign television reports this country. Tonight he finds out why foreigners think we live in the past, and discovers a Japanese fascination for our public 'conveniences'. And there's a report by Miles Kington about how British characters are stereotyped in foreign soap operas. Research MARK ROGERS
