STC were invited to present the 1982–1983 IEE Faraday Lecture which was entitled The Photon Connection. It was about how light (specifically fibre optics) would transform how we communicated in 'the future'.

My father, Mr Keith Saunders, was one of the lecturers. He presented the opening lecture in Edinburgh on 5 October 1982.

This video (production number 81196), produced by World Wide Pictures Ltd, London, looked behind the scenes at how the lecture was put together as well as setting up the set for the opening lecture at the Usher Hall, Edinburgh.
