: THE WEEK'S GOOD CAUSE
Appeal on behalf of St. Agnes Home for Children by Gladys Young , O.B.E.Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to Miss Gladys Young , St. Agnes Home for Children, [address removed]
For nearly forty years ' St. Agnes ' has cared for children of all ages, some from unhappy homes, some without any homes, some without parents, many abandoned by their parents, but all find a happy Christian environment-in other words a home— at 'St. Agnes,' regardless of their antecedents. There is no central or official fund out of which to meet any part of the costs, and donations are urgently needed to carry on the work.

: Allan McClelland and Ernest Milton in 'CONINGSBY'
by Benjamin DisraeliAdapted as a serial in nine episodes by Blair
7—' Coningsby declares his independence'
Other parts played by Peter Claughton , Patricia Matthews and Hilda Schroder
Produced by Frederick Bradnum
From a chance meeting with Lady Wallinger and her husband in Cambridge, Coningsby learns that Sidonia is only an old family friend and would never marry Edith. This induces him to go to Coningsby Castle and meet the Millbank family again at nearby Hellingsley, where they are living. Oswald Millbank begs Coningsby to lead the ' New Generation ' of young Tories to achieve the political ideals they have at heart.
At Hellingsley Coningsby declares his love for Edith and is accepted. But Millbank rejects him, revealing that he had been a suitor for Coningsby's mother but that she had married his father instead, with the result that Lord Monmouth had ruined them both. He will not risk Edith being similarly treated. Oswald returns with Coningsby to Coningsby Castle to console him, and Rigby discovers Coningsby entertaining him there, a forbidden guest.

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.
