A series of five programmes presented by Jonathan Dimbleby 1: We, the People
The French Revolution, 200 years ago, transformed western democracy. But its principles of liberty, equality and fraternity left Britain's unwritten constitution virtually untouched.
Through the week, this series asks how that constitution serves us today, and culminates in a national debate on individual liberties and democracy in Britain. Voices from all over the United Kindgom express concerns about the way we are governed and the balance of power between citizen and state. Jonathan Dimbleby asks Prof David Marquand of Salford University and Dr Jonathan Clark of Oxford University, whether these concerns constitute a crisis.

A series of six films with Patrick Nuttgens
2: What about the Workers?Tonight's film looks at the origins of mass housing in the slums of the Industrial Revolution and the first attempts to provide decent housing for the working man in Scotland, in Yorkshire and on Merseyside. Also, how government became involved after the First World War and why.
Patrick Nuttgens explores these questions with the help of rare archive film and first-hand accounts of life in the early part of this century: under the wing of philanthropic employers like the Rowntree family, or in the early, ambitious council schemes like the Quarry Hill flats in Leeds.
