The first of a series of seven sport and leisure programmes, with every roller-skating enthusiast in the Midlands invited to contest the first
'Skateolympics' in Coventry, and their counterparts in Scotland proving that skateboarding is alive and kicking in Livingston. Plus a dozen youngsters from
Cheshire deciding that, with Dad no longer meeting their match on the garage snooker table, the only course of action is to form their own league.

The second in a retrospective season of outstanding plays written for television by David Mercer
Tonight starring Leo McKern as Robert Kelvin and Thorley Walters as Holland
with Michelle Dotrice as Emma
The dramatic impetus for tonight's intriguing and mysterious play, first shown in 1968, is provided by the memory and fantasies of Robert Kelvin, an illustrious and ageing novelist. These are triggered off by the love that Emma, a beautiful young girl, offers him. His inability to respond to her any more than to the other two women in his life adds all the more to the agony of the powerful climax.
