One of a series of 3 x 30 min programmes following delegates travelling from their North East constituencies to the annual party-political conferences in Blackpool (Con), Brighton (Lab) and Torquay (Lib-Dem).
In this episode, first-time delegate, solicitor Sylvia Connolly, and former MP, Ashok Kumar, travel from Darlington to the Labour Party Conference in Brighton. In this clip, Shadow Transport Secretary, John Prescott, tells a joke about Clause IV - just eighteen months before the new Labour leader, Tony Blair, succeeds in having his own rewritten version of Clause IV adopted at a Special Conference in Easter 1995. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clause_IV#Blair.27s_fight
