Problem set by Barry Rigal.

Trade Gap: the Spectre at the Feast
Ten years ago this week, a Conservative government came to power committed to a radically different approach to managing the economy. A decade later, the United
Kingdom faces an all-too-familiar problem - a huge trade deficit. Why has
Mrs Thatcher 's supply side policy so far failed to make an impact on Britain's deep-seated tendency to import? Nisha Steyn reports. Producer JEREMY BRISTOW

Embassy World Professional Snooker Championship The Final (frames 8-16).
David Vine brings further news from the Crucible
Theatre in Sheffield, as the players move into the last stages of the 1989 final.
Day 16 draws to a close; the long haul is nearly over, but what price the thoughts of more than 100 players who would no doubt cheerfully swap places with the two men under pressure. Suffering sometimes has its advantages!
