One Pair of Eyes (TV series)

One Pair Of Eyes is a British current affairs documentary programme, which was first broadcast on 5 May 1967 on BBC Two.^[1] The episodes were broadcast sporadically, usually once a month,^[1] with each episode presented by a different person, and focused on a subject that they care about. Those subjects could be controversial, according to David Attenborough who commissioned the series, as he was BBC Two's director of programmes at the time.^[2][3]

The presenters were highly thought of, and from a wide range of fields which included: broadcasters, newspaper and magazine editors, journalists, foreign correspondents, writers, satirists, artists, scientists, astronomers, academics, politicians, trade union leaders, activists, architects, actors, comedians, musicians, composers, businessmen, members of the military, farmers, factory workers, chefs and barons.
