Editorial comments: Available on CD-ROM only. MT was questioned for almost half an hour by an audience of 500 voters from Bolton, Gus McDonald chairing. Michael Foot and David Steel also had separate fifteen minute question and answer sessions - MT appearing last, and overstaying her allotted time. Granada TV has lost its tape of the programme and the National Film and Television Archive did not acquire a copy.
