On the Air
London turns into Radio City for this imaginary day in the life of community radio.

Social Handicaps
'Any fool can close a long-stay hospital: it takes more time to do it properly and compassionately.' So said an all-party group of MPs last year. Yet the fear is that hospitals for the mentally handicapped are rushed into closure and the residents placed in communities that do not care. Sixty thousand parents and relatives of the mentally handicapped have petitioned Parliament to stop the hospital closure programme.
Last week, Brass Tacks showed the problems confronting former hospital patients released into the outside world on the back of the progressive 'community care' philosophy of the 60s. Tonight, Sir Brian Rix , Secretary-General of the National Society for Mentally Handicapped Children and Adults, and an advocate of community care, defends the policy against its critics.

The Englishwoman's Wardrobe with Angela Huth
Why is it that as a nation, we have such a rotten reputation as dressers? What are we trying to say about ourselves through our appearance? 'Oh not black again, dear,' says Denis - but Margaret Thatcher knows a secret or two about old faithfuls and reliable standbys. Tonight the Prime Minister reveals, for the first time, the inside story of her wardrobe.
Selina Scott always wanting 'to look a bit different from everyone else'; the probation officer who last wore a dress when she danced with the Prince of Wales; the bubbly society hostess who seems to wear only party dresses; the housewife with an eye for the 20p bargain with a designer label - these are just some of the extraordinary and ordinary women who unlock their wardrobes and tell all, proving that the only thing in vogue is individuality.
