: Forever Divided?
Twenty years ago this week, British troops were committed to the streets of Northern Ireland to act as policemen, and they've been there ever since. In tonight's special programme, Jonathan Dimbleby traces the events leading up to that decision through to the present day, with comments from Lord Callaghan, Edward Heath, Lord Whitelaw, former GOC Lt General Sir Harry Tuzo and others. In the second part of the programme, a panel of distinguished speakers debate a series of 'what if...?' scenarios for the future of Northern Ireland. Why not a united Ireland, or a completely independent Ulster? Can the troops be withdrawn without a blood bath? Or will they be there for another 20 years? Guests include: Lord Colnbrook, former Secretary of State for Northern Ireland; Dr Garrett Fitzgerald , former Taoiseach (Prime Minister) of the Irish Republic; John Hume, MP, MEP, Leader SDLP; John Taylor, mp, Ulster Unionist Party; Lt Gen Sir Anthony Farrar Hockley, former Commander Land Forces, Northern Ireland; Governor Carey, former Governor of New York State.

: Grand Prix
Hungarian Grand PrixAyrton Senna 's fourth win of the season two weeks ago in Germany has put pressure back on team-mate and World Championship leader Alain Prost. Last year at the Hungaroring Senna beat
Prost by less than a second. Only the Ferraris seem to threaten the McLaren domination and Hungary is not Nigel Mansell 's lucky track. Two years ago a wheel nut flew off and deprived him of victory, and last year he raced suffering from chickenpox! Mansell needs to win here to stand any chance of the championship; perhaps his luck can change. Commentators:
Murray Walker and James Hunt.

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.
