: Darwin at Westminster
A RemembranceA hundred years ago today. Charles Darwin lay on his deathbed. One eventful week later, on 26 April 1882. he was buried in Westminster Abbey by ' the will of the intelligence of the nation '. Members of Parliament, clergy and the press called for national recognition of his outstanding contribution to English science. In the light of the religious controversies that had surrounded his work, how appropriate was his final resting place? How suitable is it now? As evolutionary theory comes under attack from creationists on the right and radicals on the left, is Darwin's reputation as the greatest of British naturalists in decline' Will it, too, be buried beneath the sacred slabs?
The President of the Royal Society, the Dean of Westminster, Desmond Morris and other contemporary interpreters of British culture give their views. Also taking part AUDREY RUSSELL , MICHAEL DEACON. MICHAEL OOLDIE , MIRANDA forres and stella FORGE Researched, written and presented by Jim Moore. Historian of Science at the Open University Producer SUE DAVIES

Weather report; forecast followed by an interludeAbout 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.
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.
