HAZEL WINTER
Thi morning Miss Hazel Winter is to tells you all about the civil war under Charles I, and she will do so in the easiest and most interesting way for you to understand-in a dramatic interlude.
It is the anniversary of the execution of the King, and the scene is set in a country house owned by Royalists.
Fugitives from Worcester are still being , rounded up, and a party of Roundhead soldiers comes to the house. They insist on staying the night. You who are Royalists will thrill at Royalist views, and you who are for Cromwell will be stirred by the opinions of his soldiers. And you who have not yet made up your minds can listen and decide which side you would have joined if you had lived in those days, and why.

The Song of the Rhine Daughters is an orchestral arrangement of an episode in the third act of The Dusk of the Gods. Siegfried, separated from his companions in the hunt and wandering to the banks of the Rhine, is hailed by the Rhinemaidens, who warn him of his approaching death and urge him to restore to them the Ring. Siegfried, conscious of his own strength, laughingly refuses to take their warning seriously.
First we have the music associated throughout the cycle with the Rhinemaidens, but when Siegfried appears, the various themes illustrating the text throng in glorious profusion. The whole excerpt is one of -the most beautiful in The Ring.

JOHN MORGANA talk over the aims and scope of the Young Farmers' Club movements with one of its ardent supporters. Two hundred branches of this thriving organisation are now established here and there throughout rural Britain, the membership having doubled in the last two years. It is open to ' any person' between the ages of ten and twenty-one, ' who will look after something that either lives or grows'. This brings in .the young horticulturist as well as the young farmer of the town and country alike. Several teams of these ' young farmers ' will be judging at Smithfields Christmas Fat Stock Show in London, early in December. A number will also be exhibitors of cattle there, cattle which they have themselves reared and cared for.

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.
