: Tuesday at Eight: Theatre Date: The Crunch
Andrew Cruickshank stars in scenes from the new comedy by Felicity Douglas and Basil Dawson from the stage of the St Martin's Theatre, London(A Sherwood and Reid and Richard Pilbrow presentation of the Prospect production)
The crunch comes when Henry Oldershaw, headmaster of King Edward's Grammar School, is faced with an overwhelming financial problem. Is he to solve this according to the dictates of his own conscience - or is he tempted to listen to his less-principled old friend, Willy?

: The Colour Line: Tuesday's Documentary
by Hugh BurnettA film about the dilemma of South Africans neither white nor black.
South Africa's face to the world is white, backed by a sea of blacks. But the real situation is much more complicated, ihe colour lines, drawn by law through the country's 19-million inhabitants, isolate two million people under the classification 'Coloured'
They are above the blacks and below the whites in the social hierarchy of apartheid. Many of them are the legacy of three centuries of what would now be illicit sexual pleasure - across the colour line.
Hugh Burnett has been back to South Africa to make this third film on the Republic's race policies. Tonight's documentary looks at the blurred edge of the colour line where things are not as black and white as they might seem to the outside world.

: Who's Killing the Car?
Cliff Michelmore reportsFor every 10 motorists in this country who bought a new car last year there are now only nine. This year, for the first time since 1963, less than a million new cars are expected to come on to the roads. What explains this brake on buying?
Is it the breathalyser, the 70 mph speed limit, parking meters, inadequate motorways, or is it the 15 million which road users have to pay out every day in tax?

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.
