: The Stanley Baxter Show
Another look at the unique comedy of Stanley Baxterwith guests The New Faces
and Denise Coffey, Clare Richards, William Redmond, Bill Henderson
BBC Scottish Radio Orchestra
Conducted by Iain Sutherland
From Scotland
Stanley Baxter, one of Scotland's top laughter-makers, certainly hit the right note when this series was originally shown.
Audience research revealed an enthusiastic reaction. Sample: Stanley Baxter has a unique and uncannily perceptive talent for impersonation and characterisation.
The New Faces, Stanley's guests tonight, are the popular two boys and a girl singing group. Two members of the group-Marie Gordon and Barry Greenway were married in January.

: Come Dancing
It isn't meant to be an international - but try telling the enthusiast!Organised by Mecca Dancing
Peter West introduces the First Half of West Scotland v. Home Counties North
West Scotland have knocked on the door of the Come Dancing final so often without success that it would not be surprising if by now the spirit was a little unwilling. But the Scots just don't give up that easily. Can they take this last hurdle on the way to the final?

About 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.
To read scans of the Radio Times magazines from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s, you can navigate by issue.
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.
