David Frost in conversation first with George Burns and later with Lucille Ball and Carol BurnettBurns, now 74, 'I smoke 20 cigars a day, at my age I've got to hold on to something,' tells a series of dry reminiscences about his 67 years in show business and his 50-year friendship with Jack Benny. 'We were at this party and Jack got up to light a cigarette. I said: "Quiet everybody, Jack is going to do the match bit." And he stood there with the cigarette and the matches, he didn't know what to do with everybody looking at him, so he finally lit the cigarette. I said: "Oh, a new finish".'
Lucille Ball recounts the experience she had with her newly born baby and Carol Burnett recalls the embarrassment of receiving an injection in the bottom from the doctor she loved.

As a professional film stuntman and fight director he has spent the last 10 years deliberately putting himself in peril. What kind of man takes up this 'dying art'? And are those hair-raising stunts really as dangerous as they look?A co-production with the Australian Broadcasting Commission

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.
