: It Happened to Me: 3: Forgotten Men
A monthly series in which Outside Broadcast and film cameras tell how one incident can change one person's life.Mark Rea, who was with the Royal Marine Commandos during the war, tells how he wrecked his life and then ran out of a pub one night into a different world. Here he rebuilt his own life and learned to help others to rebuild theirs.
Tonight in an Outside Broadcast from shanties on a rubbish dump in the North of England he introduces Hywel Davies to some of the extremely cheerful people who are his friends and to other lonely and friendless men who refuse all help.

: Who Cares?: 3: A Road to Ruin
This film, the third in a series made in co-operation with the Civic Trust, tells the story of one man's efforts to save an otherwise lovely road from ruin. 'The Pembury Road could be as fine as a Duke's drive', says Walter Coltham, who is fighting the muddle and indifference which are threatening its appearance. In this sense the Pembury Road stretches a long way - from Land's End to John o' Groats.Introduced by Douglas Jones.

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.
