This programme does not set out to be anything more than a piece of journalism. It consists of facts. It is the total of what 35.000 Germans reported on that day; what a dozen magistrates dealt with; what a weather station and an observatory noticed in the sky: and what two reporters noticed on a stroll through a German town
