Showing how science and special skills work in pursuit of the law-breaker
12— The Loosened Nut and the Blazing Car
Narrator, James McKechnie
Script and production by John Gough
The programme tells of a conflict of expert evidence as between mechanical engineers. The Prosecution claimed that the nut under the dashboard was deliberately loosened to give a free flow of petrol to aid a deliberate fire. The Defence contended that intense heat can loosen nuts, and that this part of the Prosecution's case was worthless.

Paul Bareau, Deputy City Editor of the News Chronicle, talks about some of the ways in which Commonwealth and United States economic affairs are now interrelated.

by Nathaniel Micklem, Principal of Mansfield College, Oxford
The nineteenth century was the great century of church attendance in this country. Revivals set in everywhere and missionary movements grew. But during this great, expansion the beginnings of opposition to the Christian faith were already evident. Many a serious-minded Christian was confused by the attacks of science and the new way of thinking. Dr. Micklem deals with this century from the point of view of one who watched the inevitable growth of science and scientific thinking. The many questions that came to such a Christian when the structure of his faith was altered made this century a confusing one for many.
