As a result The Family Fund was set up: the first and only time taxpayers' money was given to an independent trust to distribute directly to the public. How does The Family Fund operate?

(Repeated: Wed 1.40 pm): Reel Evidence
The Great PretendersCounterfeiting of brand-name products has become a booming international business. Copies of almost everything, from luxury watches and perfumes, to brake pads and babies' dummies, are being produced in their thousands by factories-mainly in the Far East. The fakes are often poorly made and in some cases highly dangerous, yet the genuine manufacturers are often powerless to stamp out their illicit production. Worse still, the worldwide sale of fakes is beginning to hit the export markets of UK companies, cutting into their profits and threatening jobs.
Bill Breckon follows the counterfeit trail from the factories of the Far East to the shops of Britain.

The first of ten talks in which Ray Gosling tells the story of his travels last winter overland to the East.1: Christendom Bye, Bye ' Summer is over. In Brindisi the sun-seekers are streaming back to Western Europe up the main street from the Greek ferries. But I'm going the other way. Travelling alone, a middle-aged man in a tropical jacket with two shoulder bags my only luggage. An innocent abroad. Never before to Asia-and just enough time to cross Turkey before the coming snow.'

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.
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.
