He confronts grumpy comedian Felix Dexter who concedes that things have improved since the days of Love Thy Neighbour. He also talks to former MP Oona King.

Liberal aristocrat Lord Loam favours a return to nature, with masters and servants living together as equals, but as the perfect butler and the perfect snob, Crichton adores the intricacies of the class system. He can't help but be horrified by his master's opinions. It's going to take a sea change to alter them. Starring Russell Tovey and David Bannerman. Abridged, produced and directed by Fiona Keicher.

Pete Seeger is perhaps the most popular and prolific American folk-singer-cum-political-activist alive today. Drawing on the BBC's extensive archive and new interviews,
Vincent Dowd celebrates Seeger's life and explores the efficacy of his continuing bid to improve the world through the power of song. Robin Denselow provides the musical context and background, and the programme also features other musicians who have interpreted Seeger's songs, from Marlene Dietrich to Bruce Springsteen.

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.
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.
