Making the Law
A dramatic interlude written for broadcasting by HUGH Ross WILLIAMSON
Old customs and laws were collected by King Alfred and written down and accepted by the Witan. As time went on, the king and his council not only gave justice, but also made new laws and discussed other important business besides. You will hear how kings found it useful and even necessary to have the consent not only of the nobles, but of the common people as well, and so Parliament, as we know it, began.

' She Knew Before They Came' by a Woman who ForesawAir-Raids
Dreams have been interpreted since the days of Joseph ; the question of whether or no it is given to some of us to see into the future remains a fascinating problem. We are so anxious to know what the future holds — what is going to happen. What adds to the conviction of this talk is that the woman who gives it, and claims second sight, belongs to no occult body and has never mixed with people who are concerned with that kind of thing. She is, on the contrary, an ordinary suburban housewife and mother, caring for a married daughter and a husband and son who both work in the City.

Dancing this afternoon to the music of Tommy Kinsman and his Dance OrchestraTommy Kinsman , although only thirty-five, has had an adventurous life. He was in Russia during the revolution, missed by a few hours the explosion that razed Halifax, Nova Scotia, to the ground, and was nearly assassinated in Dublin during the Sinn Fein trouble. He came to London from Liverpool in 1921 and played at the Hammersmith Palais de Danse. Since then Tommy and his boys have played at the Ritz, the Piccadilly, Ciro's Club, Casani Club, and the Cafe de Paris, and the band is now playing at Tussaud's Restaurant.

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.
