The series that turns hidden cameras on bad customer service this week goes under ground. Dylan Winter , armed with a miniature camera, rides the tube trains of London and finds out how London Underground tests its own staff using people called mystery passengers. He then takes his video evidence of surly service to LondonUnderground's management. They put the blame at the government's door, showing how, six years after the fire, King's Cross is literally falling apart for lack of funds.

: May to December
The surprise at the start of this new series is not that Zoe wants to go back to work after the birth of baby Fleur. Nor is it that second-time-around father Alec isn't keen to become a househusband. The shock is that everyone's favourite secretary, Hilary, has leftCallender and Callender and gone to the Isle of Wight "to spend more time with my
Derek" who is sadly residing in Parkhurst Prison.
However, writer
Paul A Mendelson is confident that viewers will warm to her replacement - that is if Mrs
Tipple (aka Miss Flood) can find someone suitable.

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
