The Old Road ... the ancient highway curving across the hills of southern England ... The Pilgrims' Way. Today, journeying along the old road from Winchester to Alton you see this part of England much as ancient travellers must have seen it; the road curling, climbing, and dipping; the green, tree-topped hills majestic on either hand.

Part 4
Production by Hugh Stewart
Soames Forsyte , ' The Man of Property,' anxious to divorce his estranged wife, Irene, invites Annette Lamotte , an attractive French girl, to his home at Mapledurham.
Young Jolyon , who tells the story to his children, Holly and Jolly, receives a visit from Soames and Val Dartie. Val is the son of Soames's runaway brother-in-law Monty. Soames tries to arrange a meeting at Oxford between Val and Jolly. Meanwhile Val meets and talks with Holly. Soames confesses that he wants a divorce from Irene, and Jolyon agrees to see her on Soames's behalf. Irene denies having a lover, as Soames suspects, and whilst pitying Soames she does not see what she can do to help towards freeing him. Jolyon is struck afresh by Irene's beauty, and finds her more attractive than ever.

5-Blake and the Flaming Line
At first sight the qualities of William Blake seem to be the contraries of English qualities defined so far in these lectures. He is not rational, not factual, not detached. Dr. Pevsner suggests, however, that Blake's drawing has remarkable affinities with the Decorated style of English architecture; and equally with Hogarth's theory of beauty. Unlike, say, the Italians, the English have no confidence in the body. The English speciality, in Dr. Pevsner's view, is ' scintillating line.' Even Hogarth, who was voluptuous up to a point, proclaimed line the key to beauty.
