The BBC is the world's most famous and powerful cultural institution. Throughout its 75 year existence it has attracted criticism, controversy and political bullying, as well as epitomising globally the heights to which public, non-commercial broadcasting can aspire. It remains the model for public broadcasters around the world. Uncertain Vision is a unique and fascinating portrait of this venerable institution in changing and uncertain times. It is based on the most extensive independent research ever conducted inside the BBC, during which Georgina Born was allowed unprecedented access to employees from all ranks of the organisation and gives an extraordinary portrait of the corporation during the later 1990s, the last years of the regime of the former director general John Birt. Its insight into the workings and problems of the BBC is unparalled and it does not flinch from criticising the destructive policies of the Birt period. It promises to be a stimulating, controversial and definitive portrait of the most fascinating period in the history of the greatest broadcasting organisation in the world.

It is 1700 and Deborah Horden jumps at the chance to escape her unexciting life at Horden Hall in Northumberland and travel to Europe with her brother when he and his French wife go to visit her family. Although thrilled by every new experience and with eyes open for an interesting man Deborah becomes worried that her brother might be drawn into a Jacobite rebellion hatching on French soil. A mysterious Monsieur le Vent flirts with her but she finds his comings and goings very sinister. When she meets an English Lord of short stature, whose father had been in the navy with her father, she dismisses the possibility of an attraction because of the discrepancy in their heights. Foiling her brother's activities, however, becomes her top priority. The novel vividly evokes eighteenth century Europe and the trials of a family caught up in political events.
