Director Ronald Eyre presents the first episode of the long-running arts documentary series created by Humphrey Burton when he was head of Music and Arts at the BBC. Eyre looks selectively and critically at what is coming on, or doing well, in theatres, while Kenneth Tynan talks to Laurence Olivier about Lilian Baylis, the eccentric founder of The Old Vic. There is also a film about David Hockney's sets for The Rake's Progress, on tour after its success at Glyndebourne. First broadcast in 1975
