In this new drama, the Sabine family is struggling to build a fashion empire at any cost, composed of business-savvy Paul (Richard Coyle), his wealthy American wife Helen (Mamie Gummer) and his brilliant but dissipated designer brother Claude (Tom Riley). Set in 1947, the drama captures a tur- bulent era in French history when partisans hunted down Nazi collaborators and anyone with something to hide shunned the past and embraced the future. Fashion became the perfect expression of this impulse to look ahead. Wartime rationing, drabness and erotic restraint gave way to alluring displays of color, form and fabric in women’s clothes — for those who could afford them.The Sabine family firm is at the forefront of this exciting but ruthless pur- suit, and Paul has been chosen by the French government to lead the battle to reclaim the nation’s preeminence in the cou- Milo Parker as Gerald Durrell ture world.

Because this nightmare is a very real problem .. When a child is missing, it is the most emotionally exhausting experience a family may ever face. To help parents take action if this tragedy should ever occur, WKJF -AM and WKJF -FM organized a program to provide the most precise child identification possible. These Fetzer radio stations contacted a local video movie dealer and the Cadillac area Jaycees to create video prints of each participating child as the youngster talked and moved. Afterwards, area law enforce- ment agencies were given the video tape for their permanent files. WKJF -AM/FM organized and publicized the program, the Jaycees donated man- power, and the video movie dealer donated the taping services-all absolutely free to the families. The child video print program enjoyed area -wide participation and is scheduled for an update. Providing records that give parents a fighting chance in the search for missing youngsters is all a part of the Fetzer tradition of total community involvement.
