Jackie Spreckley reports on the changing environment of the production line.
With new technology and higher demands for productivity, what is it like to work in a modem factory? The cameras look in on a new experiment in factory working which aims to break down some of the old 'management-worker' divisions.
From the 9-II-5 offices, a topical discussion on the trends that are affecting our working lives in 1989. In Episode 9 of The Move, the company business is carrying on while the EPL managers sort out the problems of relocation.

The Greening of Mrs Thatcher From No 10 Downing Street Mrs Thatcher talks to Michael Buerk.
Prime Minister for ten years, Mrs Thatcher and her
Government's environmental record hasn't won her many bouquets.
This weekend she hosts a major international conference on saving the ozone layer, when that record and her commitment will be on the line.
She says that the Tories are the real 'friends of the earth', but is she genuinely committed or just chasing the Green vote?
Tonight she talks for the first time about her own attitude to the environment, and what her new initiatives could mean for Britain and the rest of the world. Research MARK FIELDER

Do you believe in ghosts? Helen McCormick does. She found an ancient crucifix in her cellar - and then saw a medieval monk walk past her kitchen window.
Ambulanceman Ken Lobley rescued his aunt after a warning from an apparition. Nichola Thompson, aged 13, was reading, looked up, and saw her grandmother - wearing the pink shroud she'd been buried in two years earlier.
Rev Jack Richardson investigates spooky Harnham Hall in Northumberland. He blesses the earthly remains of Kate Babington, who died a prisoner at Harnham in 1670. Eddie Burks, a 'clairsentient', is summoned to an RAF base to contact the ghost of an airman. Eerily, he describes how the man died and why he returns. And four nurses spend the night in 'the most haunted house in Britain' - with strange tales to tell the following morning....
