4.00pm Tea for Two
Everyone can hum it. It's been around for nearly 70 years. The tune Tea for
Two seems so effortlessly simple and catchy that we might have almost written it ourselves. But behind its simple title is a truly great song. Jack Tinker serves up Tea for Two in many of its different guises and - by way of Broadway in the 1920s - reveals the complex mind of its composer, Vincent Youmans. Producer Angela Hind

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.
