Shortcrust and Choux Pastry Albert takes a back seat this week, while his brother Michel, who has been winning awards for patisserie for years, shows how a master craftsman makes a basic pastry, and then demonstrates how simple and versatile choux pastry can be. In a sequence filmed in the kitchens of the Waterside Inn, Michel reveals a not-so-secret passion.
Albert merely reminisces about events of his apprenticeship and eats the results of Michel's labours. Director SARAH NOVELLO RUCKLEY Producer JILL MARSHALL

W. B. Yeats is best known as the poet of romantic Ireland and his lyric poetry has become part of our common language. In the week that sees the 50th anniversary of his death, Bookmark presents a major film biography of the man many consider to be this century's greatest poet in English. < Shot in the timeless Irish landscapes of Sligo and j Galway, the film draws on the unique testimony of Michael and Anne Yeats , the poet's son and daughter, as well as contributions from Seamus Heaney ,
Conor Cruise O'Brien , Denis Donoghue , Francis Stuart and others to produce a full portrait of Yeats not only as poet, son, father, lover, but also as literary nationalist, a towering figure in the cultural and political movements which led to the founding of the Irish Free State.

The first of three dramas from Northern Ireland.
It is said that for those who live in Northern Ireland the Troubles are as easy to ignore as an elephant in your living room. Alan Clarke 's film is a chilling commentary on the pitiless sectarian murders that have become an almost routine feature of the news from Ireland.
