Broadcaster and managing director John Myers has a reputation as the grim reaper of disc jockeys. Now it is six weeks till the launch of a new commercial radio station in Manchester. But will his chosen star, notorious politician Derek Hatton, make the grade as Degsy the talk show host? If he fails John plans to pursue exclusive commentary rights for Manchester United football games instead. Tensions mount when the first set of official audience ratings is released.
See today's choices.

Trouble at the Top 9.00pm BBC2
Former left-wing politician Derek Hatton has the chance to make his voice heard again, this time as a radio presenter. This entertaining and revealing documentary follows the build-up to the launch of a new commercial radio station in the North West. Managing director John Myers reckons Hatton's programme The Degsy Debate will pull in the listeners, but first he has to learn how to do the job - from scratch. The radio rookie doesn't feature in the station's launch publicity and when you witness him grappling with the job you know why. "Don't worry about it," Myers tells him. "You'll get it right or you won't be on." This is just one of the many problems at the new station that Myers has to solve. Meanwhile, in Nottingham, the company's other station is failing to live up to expectations and prompt action is required.

Uncovered here, against a backdrop of street violence and vitriolic racism, is the "Massacre of Welling Library" in which the British National Party left 16 people in need of hospital treatment. Plus the influence of Italian neo-fascists on modern-day supporters.
