Carrick is a dirty British Coaster - a 30-year-old tramp carrying unglamorous cargoes from port to port in the Channel and the North Sea. Her skipper and owner is Rick Waters, once part-time butler to Edward Heath.
George Norman, the mate, looks after the cargoes. The ship could capsize if a cargo shifts at sea. Tom Owen, ex-Royal Navy, struggles with Carrick's dodgy engine as it makes uncertain progress through the mad March days, carrying fertiliser to
Exmouth, grain to Antwerp, and spuds, improbably, to Wisbech.

Wenders's Wings
For the German director
Wim Wenders film-making has always been a nomadic business. Alice in the Cities, The American Friend,
Tokyo-ga and Paris Texas have taken him around half the globe.
In his latest film, Wings of Desire, Wenders returns to Berlin to confront German history and his own cultural identity.
Cohen for a Song
Leonard Cohen , the Canadian poet, has been recording for
21 years. Before his British tour Review talked to this unlikely pop star in Paris. Nairn's Legacy

The Social Security
Over five million people claim benefits from the DHSS; the social security budget runs to some E46 billion. Behind these cold statistics are a myriad of stories, of needs and problems. In the frontline dealing with them are the Social Security officers. Day in, day out, in DHSS offices across the country, they face the claimants and measure out the money. Caught between society's need for a welfare system, and the equal need to control its cost, they are widely seen by claimants as misers, and by the rest of us as faceless bureaucrats.
For the first time, a crew has been given access to film claimants and officers in their daily encounters inside a DHSS office. This film is the result: a record of what happened in the week the Government altered the Social Security regulations, inside one DHSS office.
