: For the Schools: Science and Life: Transport and Communications: 1: Transport Before Steam
Sledges and dug-out canoes may seem clumsy ways of carrying goods or of travelling, but in their own day they were great inventions. From the sledge grew the wheeled cart, leading in time to trains and motor cars, and from the dug-out canoe there grew in time the ocean liner.Introduced by Arthur Garratt.

: Their World: 4: Touch and Location
A series of four programmes dealing with the senses of animals.Introduced by W. E. Swinton. Ph.D.
Some members of the animal kingdom feel substances with one part of their body, others are touch sensitive all over. Touch is only one of the senses used by animals moving about in their own world. How do these find food at a distance and communicate with each other about where food is to be found? How do bats avoid obstacles in the dark? How do birds find their way on migration, and how does a dog find its way home?
From the BBC's West of England studio

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.
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.
Your use of this version of Genome is covered by the BBC Acceptable Use of Information Systems Policy and these terms.
