Managing Midland

A two-part dramatisation from New Zealand of the events and political intrigue that led to one of the most controversial uses of state-inspired terrorism.
1: 1985. France continues to test its nuclear weapons at Muroroa Atoll, while the growing feeling in New
Zealand is for a nuclear-free zone around its shores. For France, the threat of protest from the Greenpeace organisation is embarrassing, while the USA finds New

Women first filmed in the 60s tell the story of their lives over the past 20 years. 1: Anne-Marie
In 1966 10-year-old Anne-Marie was filmed at the Convent of the Good
Shepherd in Edinburgh. She had been put in the care of the local authority, and stayed with the nuns until she was 16. Now 32, she lives with her three children and the children's father in a council flat in Roehampton, on the outskirts of London. She looks back on her difficult childhood, and talks about the lessons she has learnt from it.
