As Belgian Businessman Alec Le Vernoy observed: "There is a real chance for Nixon to help us start working together in Europe ?not only in policy matters, but in our economic life, our technology, in science and business. There is much for us to do together. Maybe he can help us toward agreement on common purposes, and then we can move forward toward meeting them."

Applehurst's cheery district nurse is to be killed off in one of the next few installments, leaving June Buckridge without a job and without the identity she has built since the start of the serial six years ago. Off-screen she has a tendency to get drunk, still spouting the platitudes of Sister George--along with her own opinions.
