An Invitation to Return
The children of the Oldham Theatre Workshop are rehearsing the musical Bugsy Malone for performance in the Tameside Theatre, Ashton-under-Lyne. The cast is 300 strong.
'When we go into the theatre, I don't want a bill for damage to dressing rooms,' says director David Johnson. 'What I do want is an invitation to return.' The problems of production come thick and fast. People in the design department have to build a yellow Rolls-Royce with working lights. Props are having trouble making the 'splurge guns' fire foam over everyone. The revolving stage has yet to work properly and the stage manager has to work out how to cope with hundreds waiting in the wings.

What every woman should know about pensions
'I'm a retired woman; can I claim for a dependant husband?'
'Why am I getting only 25p a week graduated pension?' 'How much can I earn before my husband's pension is affected?'
Pensions are no longer a man's preserve. More and more women are claiming pensions in their own right. But it's a complex matter to ensure that you are getting the right amount.
Margo MacDonald examines state, occupational and personal pension plans as they affect women.

Into Africa
Narrated by Anthony Hopkins
Every year, like birds migrating south, a few hundred men take to the air and fly to Africa - in the spirit of the first aviators - for the pleasure of living dangerously. Their job? To seed thunderclouds, spray locusts, dust crops and fly emergency missions from the roughest of strips.
'It must be the last frontier of true flying,' they say, 'real seat-of-the-pants stuff - low, fast, dangerous.'
To men like Abercromby-
Dick, Max Lacey and Paddy McKay it's the only way to live.
Kenya and the Sudan form a breathtaking backdrop to their exploits.
