Each week in the UK there are 500 new books published, over two million books sold over the counter, and million books borrowed from libraries. Each week Robert Robinson will make a selection from the newly published books and talk to authors and readers.Today is the 93rd birthday of P.G. Wodehouse and to celebrate he has a new 'Wooster and Jeeves' book published, Aunts Aren't Gentlemen. Robert Robinson visited him at his home on Long Island near New York, where he found the great man already well advanced with his 97th book. P.G. Wodehouse talked about his early days in a bank, his books, and his immortal comic characters, Jeeves, Bertie and Psmith.
Also this week Peter Tompkins, co-author of American bestseller The Secret Life of Plants, defends the claim that plants suffer pain and anxiety, can be used as lie detectors, and prefer Bach organ preludes to rock music.

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.
