A portrait of Eric Lyons and Span, under the scrutiny of Ian Nairn, as well as the residents of their estates.
Ian Nairn travels through Britain and takes a critical look at the townscapes and landscapes in which we live.
Writer and journalist Ian Nairn presents a series of travels, examining architecture and culture across Europe.
A series of programmes in which Ian Nairn contrasts the urban civic style of Britain and the Continent.
In these six programmes Ian Nairn looks at industrial landscape; considers the unique appeal of Liverpool; tries to analyse the attraction of a summer Bank Holiday county like Cornwall; asks if in new towns like Cumbernauld people have been given enough say in their environment; sees the potential in a plan for a Welsh hill-town; and finally takes a look at a uniquely British institution - the public house.
