To mark the 30th anniversary of Nat King Cole's death, Dave Gelly traces the remarkable life and many talents of this popular artist. Along with many of his biggest hits - Nature Boy, When / Fall in Love and, of course, the evergreen Unforgettable - there are several rare items from the early days including examples of his piano playing and a comic dialogue between him and Frank Sinatra. In a recorded interview, Nat explains his philosophy as an entertainer, and there is an eye-witness account of the infamous day in 1956 when he was attacked on stage by a gang of racist thugs.An Encore Radio production

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.
