From A to B: Tales of Modern Motoring

The first episode of this series about the British and their cars looks at the hopes and anxieties of seven young drivers as they head towards independence and adulthood.

This episode looks at couples whose relationships disintegrate once they get into the car, following journeys rife with marital discord.

This episode looks at how women feel empowered by driving and how they have embraced the pleasures traditionally sought by men.

This episode paints a portrait of the company car driver. The veil is finally lifted from the hidden world of coathangers, alloy wheels, headlight washers, fog lamps and fake badges.

The final episode looks at family motoring, complete with day-trips, children's car games, squabbles and sing-alongs. Achieving consensus within the family over which car to buy has never been more difficult, with children as young as five now volunteering expert advice. Six families reveal how their cars embody their dreams or fears for the future.
