One Foot in the Past - Season 2 (1994)

The demolition of the huge, neo-classical Euston Arch in the 1960s to make way for the new railway terminus in north London, is still ruefully cited as a prime example of architectural vandalism. In the first series, Dan Cruickshank tracked down some of the masonry to a garden in Kent. Now, as the programme returns for a second season, divers are delving into east London's River Lea, hoping to raise the rest of the Arch.

Kirsty Wark reports on Nancy Buckle's battle to remain as sole resident of the House on the Rock in Knaresborough, the extraordinary folly built by her ancestors 200 years ago, which still lacks all 20th century amenities. Plus, reports on the restoration debate - has the cult of restoring gone too far turning historic buildings into over-dressed theatre sets? And Alan Clark revisits the historic race track at Brooklands.

Kirsty Wark reports on the councils accused of vandalising their historic cemeteries; Betty Boothroyd, Speaker of the House of Commons, gives Dan Cruickshank a glimpse of the gothic splendour of her private apartments in the Palace of Westminster, and Peter York goes shopping for heritage souvenirs.

This week: Betty Boothroyd, Speaker of the House of Commons, shows Dan Cruickshank her apartments designed by Augustus Pugin and author Margaret Drabble returns to Filey, the holiday resort of her youth. With Kirsty Wark.

This week Kirsty Wark is joined by Loyd Grossman to confront heritage experts with some of the weird and wonderful post-war buildings suggested by viewers in the "List It" campaign.
