by Jocelyn Bradford
More than forty years ago Jocelyn Bradford learned how to navigate free balloons. In this talk he tells not only of the sense of peace when drifting alone in the skies, but of some of the perils and humours of ballooning; and of how once he nearly landed on Liverpool Street Station.

BBC correspondents throughout the world talk about the news, its background, and the people who make it.

Appeal on behalf of the Restoration Fund of Hexham Abbey, by Jack Hulbert
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to Jack Hulbert , [address removed]
At the close of the seventh century, St. Wilfrid built at Hexham a church unsurpassed in size and magnificence north of the Alps. The Saxon crypt with its walls made from Roman stone, the apse behind the high altar, and the bishop throne still stand as reminders of the past. Destroyed by the Danes and by the Scots, it was in the twelfth century that the Augustinian friars built this abbey which now serves as the parish church for the market town of Hexham. In spite of generous local help, £ 100,000 is needed to protect this ancient church.

by Sir Hugh Casson
Sir Hugh recently visited the U.S.A., primarily to see architecture. He has returned full of alarm at the spaces between the architecture — ' America possesses,' he says, ' the most beautiful buildings in the world and, with few exceptions, the ugliest towns.' He compares the American version of subtopia,' and the American attitude towards it, with our own.
