For Younger ListenersTwo tales from ' Round the World Stories ' by Stella Mead
1—'A Horse or an Egg'
A tale from Denmark told by David followed by * Peterkin '
Adapted by Olive Dehn from the book by Mrs. Molesworth
2—' Margaret'
Produced by Eve
Burgess Giles : ' 1 really don't quite know what made me listen to Peterkin's fancies about his invisible Princess, as we got into the habit of calling her. I suppose, when anybody quite believes in a thing, it's rather catching, and Peterkin's head was so stuffed and crammed with fairy-stories, that the idea of an enchanted little girl did not strike him as at all out of the way.'

followed by late weather forecast for land areasAbout this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
Welcome to BBC Genome
Genome is a digitised version of the Radio Times from 1923 to 2009 and is made available for internal research purposes only. You will need to obtain the relevant third party permissions for any use, including use in programmes, online etc.
This internal version of Genome, which includes all the magazine covers, images and articles as well as the programme listings from the Radio Times, is different to the version of BBC Genome that is available externally/to the public. It is only available inside the BBC network.
Your use of this version of Genome is covered by the BBC Acceptable Use of Information Systems Policy and these terms.
