When at last he is brought face to face with the brutal truth about himself, it is only to realise that the driving forces have become too strong and that ambition is a spur that he must obey however great the cost to personal and family happiness.
Song, composed by John Barry , sung and played by members of the Size Seven Group Pianist. Frederick Stone tProduced by ARCHIE CAMPBEI. L
Repeated on Monday at 3.0
