: Holiday
Introduced by Cliff MichelmoreWhy should your holiday start and end in Heathrow, Gatwick or Luton? Increasingly, tour companies use provincial airports more convenient for holidaymakers living outside the South East. Anne Gregg flew from East Midlands airport to the quiet, undiscovered side of Majorca for a villa versus hotel comparison.
The Loire Valley with its impressive chateaux and suave scenery, is not immediately associated with a family holiday. But when John Carter sampled a drive-yourself deal to self-catering chalets set in the grounds of a stately home, he discovered lots of young families, many visiting France for the first time.
For his third report in Travellers' Britain, Derek Cooper crosses the wild Yorkshire moors to the old fishing port of Whitby.

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.
