It was a discussion series featuring a panel of four. Angus Maude was the original host, later it was hosted by Joe Gullett. In one episode, the panel criticised the banning of the book Lady Chatterley's Lover,[1] in another episode there was a debate on the future of the United Nations,[2] while another episode featured a discussion of the space race.[3]
