: Panorama: What Price Air Safety?
with Michael Charlton, Robin Day, Nicholas Harman, Alan Hart, Richard Kershaw,Robert MacNeil, Julian Pettifer
Last year over 1,000 people died in 32 air accidents. In the near future, it would be possible for a similar number to die in one cataclysmic mid-air collision between two jumbo jets. But will it ever happen? How safe is this new era of flying? And what of the aircraft of today that already have that second-hand appearance? In tonight's Panorama, What Price Air Safety?, Richard Kershaw reports on the world of flying and how far it can be made safer.

: Made in Britain: The Export Sport
What do we make? - What will they buy? Spotlight on the export drive : new ideas - new products - new markets.Golf - one of the world's fastest-growing sports and a mushrooming international industry, with British manufacturers of equipment busily exploiting the potentially vast markets of America, Japan, and the rest of Europe. It will mean big money for at least two firms already making handsome profits out of the golf explosion - one, the producers of millions of golf balls; the other, an old-established club makers in Scotland, the traditional home of a game which goes back at least 500 years.

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.
