There has been an electronic revolution in television news. It has affected the way news is gathered, presented and edited.

"Horizon" follows BBCtv news teams at home and abroad for just one day, to see how the new technology works: in the studio with Sue Lawley; at the White House with Tim Sebastian ; in the newsroom with the editors. How is the new technology changing the news you see on your screen? When Tuesday 22 March started, it looked like being an ordinary newsday. It didn't turn out that way.

Since the Tate Gallery bought Twin-Tub with Guitar in 1982, Bill Woodrow's work has been a witty and unmistakable presence in British sculpture. His raw material is the detritus of consumer life: with hand-shears and pliers he spins a menagerie of bizarre images from the surface metal of discarded washing machines, spin-dryers, vacuum cleaners and car bonnets to create complex and darkly humorous sculptures.
Tonight Bill Woodrow gives a guided tour of his work, from early student experiments (with floating twigs) to major recent pieces such as Hobo.
