Talk by the Rev. H. L. Short of Manchester College, Oxford
Many factors have gone to the making of the Free Churches in this country. Their buildings have sometimes been described as ugly and sometimes as inappropriate. Mr. Short talks about some of the factors that made for design in Nonconformist churches.
by W. B. Yeats
Music composed and conducted by John Buckland
On Baile's Strand, one of Yeats's first verse plays, tells of the fight between the legendary Irish hero Cuchulain and his unknown son, and of Cuchulain's death fighting the waves. The play headed the bill on the opening night of the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, on December 27, 1904.

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.
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.
