First transmitted in 1986, Stop the Bulldozer asks if conservation at all costs is inhibiting contemporary architecture. Conservationists have become a potent force in contemporary architecture, lamenting, and sometimes preventing, the demolition of old buildings and the destruction of our architectural heritage. More recently, there has been a backlash. Equally vociferous and convinced are those who believe that conservation at all costs is desperately inhibiting contemporary architecture, and standing in the way of a proper heritage for future generations. Will love of the old become a sellout of the genuinely exciting building concepts of our time? Or is the answer to continue to adapt old buildings and give them a new lease of life: stations to museums, warehouses to flats, post offices to restaurants.Ada Louise Huxtable , Michael Manser , Terry Farrell and Kenneth Frampton argue for a contemporary architecture. while Richard Meier and 0. M. Ungers demonstrate with their buildings how old architecture can be fused with modern language to make a strong statement for the present.Narrator ANDREW SACHS
