This program produced for public television presents concert footage of the silken-voiced Dionne Warwick performing her best-known hits, including "Don't Make Me Over," "A Message to Michael," "Walk on By," "This Will Be," "Love Will Keep Us Together," "Do You Know the Way to San Jose?" and a stirring rendition of the heartbreaking "Alfie." Extras include an interview with Warwick herself reminiscing about the good years.

Although British Railways retired the last of its steam fleet in 1968 interest in steam engines has continued to grow. Hardly surprising really as the country that invented the steam engine has always had a love affair with this most human of all machines. Without the efforts of Britain's many heritage steam lines, the opportunity for families to savour the nostalgic atmosphere of a steam railway would have been lost many years ago.

Transport documentary following classic steam trains on journeys around London and the South East, including footage from London stations in the 60s, Redhill to Ashford in the 60s, the Bluebell railway, the Kent and East Sussex Railway, the Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway, the North Norfolk railway, and the Channel Tunnel.

Steam engines may not be anywhere as fast as today's modern high speed trains, but these powerful machines rekindle memories of a more romantic form of travel. Throughout their colourful history the steam locomotive has always held a very special place in the hearts of millions of people. This information over view of the development of the steam engine introduced and scripted by Nigel Harris, brings vividly to life "The Story of Steam". From the early days through the exciting development of the steam engine right up to today's surviving preserved and working steam railways. Using a unique blend of newsreed, archive film and contemporary action this programme traces the development of the great steam engines from 'Rocket' to 'Evening Star'. We also visit some more exotic and remote parts of the world, including Cuba and China, where steam locomotives can still be seen at work in the 21st Century.
