  • A Weightwatchers club of ladies all hoping to lose a few Pounds line up at the scales during one of their weekly sessions in London. With her hands on generous hips, a woman wearing a red dress stands as a leader of the evening makes her calculations. Much depends on the womens' success to reach their individual targets - the ethos in Weightwatchers being to reward the good. As they say of their ProPoints plan: ".. it is a fantastic counting system that allows you to eat what you like, when you like, until you reach your daily total. It guides you to make healthier food choices, eating more of the things that are good for you and for weight loss, and less of the things that aren't."

  • Seen from an aerial viewpoint which gives a perspective of deserted housing and empty roads, Jill Parmeter plays post woman. She is a resident of the experimental community village of Poundbury, Dorset, England. Delivering her own newsletter from door-to-door, she crosses Netherton Street and Tinten Lane to post her local news to residents and friends. The roads are empty of cars- nor is there anyone else to talk to. It is as if this community has vanished, leaving her alone. Poundbury is the visionary model village that Charles, Prince of Wales sought to develop in 1993 as a successful and pioneering town near Dorchester, built on land owned by his own Duchy of Cornwall, challenging otherwise poor post-war trends in town planning and to some extent following the New Urbanism concept from the US except that the design influences are European.

It is one of the permanent Olympic and Paralympic venues for the 2012 Games. The Velopark is at the northern end of Olympic Park. It has a velodrome and BMX racing track, which will be used for the Games, as well as a one-mile (1.6 km) road course and a mountain bike track.[2] The park replaces the Eastway Cycle Circuit demolished to make way for it.

  • It is 1985 and a farmer walks along a line of long, combustible straw and with a pitchfork and smouldering straw, sets fire to the organic material in an Essex field, southern England. It is late summer and the harvested corn has left behind short stubble which the farmer sets ablaze. This now restricted practice of destroying cereal straw and stubble by flame was stopped by the introduction of The Crop Residues (Burning) Regulations of 1993 which now restricts farmers on burning crop materials, including residues of oilseed rape, field beans and peas, except in very limited circumstances, e.g. for disease control where a plant health order has been served. The burning of straw and stubble also deprives the soil of valuable organic material and releases greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. ..
