Introduced by Cliff MichelmoreThe fabled Himalayas, the snow-capped ' roof of the world ', must surely be the most adventurous holiday. It is possible now to climb and clamber among the foothills on a package tour. You don't have to be an expert or have special training as John Carter reports.
There is a whole mass of history to be discovered by visiting the ancient sites of Sicily, and the best way of seeing a great deal in a short time is to take a coach tour, as Anne Gregg discovered.
For those wanting a holiday with a purpose, how about learning the skill of gliding? Paul Hughes went to Lasham, Hampshire to do that. Executive producer TOM SAVAGE Producer CLAM VALLANCE

: Songs of Praise
From Woodstock.Woodstock in Oxfordshire is a perfect example of a picture-postcard English village, its tourist attractions strengthened by Blenheim Palace. But the superficial image of a sleepy farming community is not the whole truth; up the road is one of the busiest small airports in the country, and among the people Geoffrey Wheeler meets are the airport manager and a member of the local Polish community who was sentenced to death in a Gestapo prison. Their hymns are sung in the Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene.
Praise my soul, the King of Heaven (Praise my soul); Come ye down to the waters; Thy hand, O God has guided (Thornbury); When I survey the wondrous cross (Rockingham); The canticle of the gift; Glorious things of thee are spoken (Abbot's Leigh): Abide with me (Eventide): All people that on Earth do dwell (Old 100th, arr. Vaughan Williams)

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.
