Introduced by Desmond Lynam.
Last season, Wimbledon defied both logic and the critics, as they beat League Champions Liverpool to win the FA Cup.
The trophy they cherish; their ambition is to retain it. Can the south west London side upset the odds again by winning at Everton, football's 'school of science'? It's an intriguing prospect, with the guarantee of goals at half-time.
With comment from Jimmy Hill.

Moral issues are coming ever more into public awareness: the daily headlines proclaim as much. But where headlines deal in black and white, the issues themselves are rarely so simple.Heart of the Matter seeks out such issues; Joan Bakewell examines the moral conflict between people with strongly held and frequently opposing views and considers what their dilemma means for us.

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.
