Four reports by Tom Mangold on life inside Britain's jails today. 4: Long-term Prisoners1 You wake up in the morning and you wish you hadn't. You think, what is the purpose of life now? I'm only ticking over till I decay. It's like bailing a rowing boat out in the middle of the Pacific. If you're never going to reach the shore, what's the use of bailing? ' How do prisons cope with the increasing number of lifers and long-termers? And how do individuals cope with the prospect of decades inside? This film was made in two maximum security jails, and contains revealing interviews with men society wants kept out of circulation.

: Play for Today
Two Sundays by 'SIMON GRAYTwo boys at school in the 1950s. Two professional men in their dubious prime today. Two Sundays and two crises. What have they to do with each other and which child is father of the man?
Peculiarly haunting ... a very fine piece. The acting was so good that one hardly noticed it. (NEW STATESMAN) One of the most memorable pieces of television drama in recent years.
(THE GUARDIAN)
With the sheer joy of Gray's witty script, it was at any level an enjoyable and successful play. (DAILY MAIL)

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.
