This Is Your Life New tonight at 7.0


EAMONN ANDREWS


Somewhere in Britain now is a man or woman whose life story will be recreated on television tonight. Until the last moment, the name will remain a secret – above all from the person whose story is being told.


Waiting in the wings are the people who have shared in that life.


It is all there in the morocco-bound volume under the arm of Eamonn Andrews as he steps forward and says: "Tonight... this is your life!"


Producer Robert Tyrrell said: "The programme will look and sound different from its predecessor. The basic formula will be hardly affected – the basic ingredient of story-telling never change – but it will alter in the style of presentation and the choice of subject."
