REDDITCH'S historic needle industry is to be the subject of a television programme being screened later this summer.

A camera crew from ITV's Heart of the Country visited the town last Tuesday , calling in at the Forge Mill Needle Museum in Riverside to find out about how life in the industry has changed.

They also visited Entaco in Studley where they filmed people working in the needle making industry today.

The programme is due to be screened in either July or August.
