Littlewoods Cup Semi-final Second legTottenham Hotspur v Arsenal
Introduced by Jimmy Hill This is more than a north London derby - they are playing for a place in the Littlewoods Challenge Cup
Final at Wembley on Sunday 5 April, which you will be able to watch live on BBCtv. This afternoon Tottenham kick-off with what could prove a priceless advantage - the goal by the season's highest scorer, clive ALLEN , that won them the first leg 1-0 at Highbury three weeks ago. But both camps affirm that, at the halfway stage, this semi-final is still right in the melting pot. Arsenal have already been successful at White Hart Lane this year.
One thing is guaranteed: five weeks today, one of these clubs will be stepping out at Wembley.

: The Search for El Dorado
The last of a three-partEveryman series exploring the impact of Christianity on South America.
The Mountains - Church in the Crossfire
During the past ten years 9,000 people have
'disappeared' in Peru's
Ayacucho province, victims of the conflict between the Maoist guerrillas, Sendero
Luminoso, and the military. This violence now threatens the neighbouring province of Puno, home of the Aymara
Indians who have cultivated the banks of Lake Titicaca since pre-Columban times. The church in Puno, unlike in Ayacucho, has actively pressurised the government to enact land reforms, hoping to limit Sendero's appeal to the Indians. Branded communists by the right and reactionaries by the left, the Peruvian church is divided.
Filmed around Lake Titicaca and in the slums of Lima this concluding episode reveals the church at a crossroad in its history.

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.
