Up-to-the-Minute Comment IT is good to know that Twenty. Four Hours is to have regular viewing time. We shall know when to brew the coffee and to settle down, as with Panorama, to up-to- the-minute comment on current affairs. Both programmes do a magnifi- cent job of work, whisking us to all parts of the world and bringing to the studio, at what often seems like a moment's notice, speakers of all shades of opinion to be inter- viewed without fear or favour.

Nothing Incidental I WAS struck by the quality and authenticity of BBC-2's recent screening of the vintage film All Quiet on the Western Front. It was not until the next day that it dawned on me-there had been no incidental music to shatter the nerves, and the film was the better for this omission. There were no sobbing violins to distract from the last sad moments of the film and no battering of the senses with bongo drums. Was incidental music brought in to heighten the effect of other- wise unexciting and mediocre films? -Mrs. J. F. Beadle.

With the return of the successful Beggar Tonight-status symbolsat the ready-the Garveys prepare My Neighbour series, status symbols have But there have been changes at MuswellHill as Ernest Thomsonfinds out been sharpened and insults honed for further clashes between the white-collar paupers and their affluent in-laws next door. The wives are sisters, but this does little to soften relations, since Gerald Garvey is an underpaid executive, and he and Rose are chronically hard-up, while Harry Butt is an opulent fitter, and he and Lana never conceal the fact. One critic described Beggar My Neighbour as 'the first BBC comedy to say that plumbing is a deal more important than rank.' Others labelled the series as ' hilariously funny,' ' sparkling,' and ' a winner for the charts.' This time Gerald is played by Desmond Walter- Ellis, replacing Peter Jones, who felt unable to commit himself to another TV series. , reappearing as Rose Garvey, straightens out the situation thus: Rose will stick to her husband through thick or thin, and this time he's thin.' Says Desmond: I've had enough of flibberti- gibbet parts. I'd sooner be funny now in a lugubrious way. Gerald is just my man-pompous and put-upon.' In his time, Desmond has traipsed through scores of comedies and farces in BBC-tv and was seen last year in a episode. In ' Let 'Em Eat Cake ' tonight, Gerald persuades Rose to join him in a natural diet of nettles and dandelions. Harry () and Lana () twig that something is up, but who could guess the outcome-Rose and Lana each suspected Desmond Walter-Ellis and June Whitfield play the Garveys, and Pat Coombs and Reg Varney are the Butts of expecting?

' But its tone is really too small Alfredo years now, and loves the instrument as much as for the concert hall. I also have an Amati and a ever. His consistency over the years is undoubtedly Pressenda but at the moment I prefer my Rocca ' � the product of hard work and a judicious varying of Giuseppe Rocca (1807.68)-' which I've owned for Campoli five years now. It really has a wonderful tone.' He has undertaken four world tours in the past twenty years-the most recent ended last September -and he is off for a long tour of Canada next Octo- ber. When he is not overseas or playing in this he likes to teach a few 'country promising pupils. I have been particularly impressed recently by Diana Cummings and Derek Collier. Compared with my early days, I think you could pick out more easily fifty players with a fine technique today than you could then.' He feels quite relaxed playing on television. ' But they do rehearse you to death. I suppose all those camera run-throughs are needed to make everything run smoothly.' Apart from listening to his excellent stereo hi-fi equipment, he likes to get away from music in his spare time. ' I play bridge three or four evenings a week and I've represented for the past five years at the game. Then I go target shooting with the Enfield Rifle Club and if there's any time over I play croquet.' His full life is completed by his passion for his cine-camera. ' It became something more than a hobby when I went to Russia for the first time in 1956. The film I shot, "British Musicians visit the U.S.S.R.," was shown all over the place-one of the first inside views of that country.' ALAN BLYTH

Ten Composers These programmes unite composers as far apart in time and style as Palestrina and Stravinsky and attempt to show how music has developed through- out the centuries from medieval times to our own day. They are introduced by Ivor Keys, who de- votes each programme to the music of a single composer and discusses his life and work against the social and historical background of his time. In this way we can hear the music afresh as the people for whom it was written heard it, and we can understand what the composer was trying to express and how well he succeeded. VICTOR POOLE

THURSDAY Living in Towns Although nine out of ten of us live in towns, most of us know little about the functions of the local and national planning authorities that shape our lives, nor about the size and nature of the problems and opportunities in which they are in- volved. But we do feel the impact of these prob- lems in the strains and pressures of daily life. This series investigates the way we plan for living in towns and shows how planning opportuni- ties must be related to the needs of a humane and civilised environment, holding a fair balance be- tween the needs of the nation and the rights of the individual. JOHN DUTOT

FRIDAY Making A Play If you are interested in the amateur theatre either as an active member or a staunch supporter these are for you! Even if you only want a programmes' peep behind the scenes ' you'll find them fascinat- ing. For in ten weeks we follow the fortunes of the Teddington Theatre Club and their production of a play through all its stages from first reading to dress rehearsal. You will be present at the auditions, be at the producer's elbow during re- hearsals, hear the arguments over design, costs, and publicity and share in the many activities both sides of the curtain.

Tonight's programme The Italia venture was ill-omened from the start brings to British audiences for the first time on film and Nobile gave himself only an even chance of the full story of what actually happened. success.

Thereafter the of the Italia flight in history. In the face of fearful hazards he story expedition and of flew his airship Norge from the Mediterranean to Nobile's subsequent life becomes stranger and more the Pacific via the North Pole, thereby discovering terrible than any fiction. Only a few of the airship's an unknown ocean in a region hitherto inaccessible crew were to see their homes again. It would be a pity to spoil this fantastic story by giving it away in advance. Suffice it to say that the Italia disaster contains all the classic ingredients of tragedy on a monumental scale, set against the vast backcloth of the Arctic wilderness. A barely audible wireless message, SOS ITALIA ... SOS ITALIA, set in motion the biggest and most dramatic Polar rescue operation in history, an international affair in which eight nations sent men and machines to search the Arctic for survivors. Before the end, Amundsen, conqueror of the South Pole, had lost his life, one of Nobile's officers was charged with cannibalism, and Mussolini accused Nobile of cowardice and desertion of his post. Essentially this is the story of one man � of his achievements and his downfall and his long, lonely fight to clear his name. The tragedy of the Italia is the tragedy of Umberto Nobile himself-a hero brought to his knees by a fearsome combination of the enmity and intrigue of others, his own fatal flaw, and plain bad luck. Nobile, incidentally, is still alive today and it is largely from film collected by him after the disaster that this unusual programme has been compiled. THE PASSIONATE STRANGER THE moral of the Love Affair film tonight is clear: never confuse fiction with truth, par- ticularly if you happen to be a chauffeur. Passionate Stranger is a 1956 British production which stars as a wheel-chair- bound scientist, Margaret Leighton as his romantic novelist wife, and Carlo Justini as their newly arrived Italian chauffeur. His arrival pro- vides the novelist with the idea for a love plot, and she rashly leaves her manuscript lying about. The chauffeur takes it for truth, and the ensuing misunderstanding is recounted in two parallel stories, one fantasy and the other actuality. The film was directed at Shep- perton by Muriel Box and produced by -who nowadays turns out those very successful films.

The End of the Saga Producer DonaldWilson writes:

This evening, after six months on the air, The Forsyte Saga comes to its conclusion with the final episode, which we have called ' Swan Song,' the title of the last of Galsworthy's six novels. For those who have worked on the serial for so many months it will be an occasion mixed with relief and regret Relief at a long and arduous task at last complete; regret because during over a year of filming, re- hearsals, and recordings, we have become a family nearly as close- knit as the Forsytes themselves, though without, I am happy to re- port, their distressing habit of scratching out each others eyes.

TAKE a friend to a pub for a drink; he stops at the door, and you let him lead you to another one where they don't mind RAINBOW CITY serving him although he is a Negro. And new serial about a Jamaican lawyer and that is the least of it; one of the com- A six-part plaints currently before C.A.R.D. is that a West other immigrants living in and around Birmingham Indian woman was beaten up by a white man in a London street. So one feels anger and shame; but where does that get us? In a world in which increasing millions of human beings are trying to survive together, racial intoler- ance seems not only humiliating but irrelevant. It's easy, of course, to be unprejudiced about racial prob- lems when you're not faced with them, easier to be liberal in Cheltenham than in Little Rock; but racial mixture is what we now have here, and one does find, occasionally and joyously, people who are pre- pared to be actively pleased and helpful about it. One of them is David Porter, Head of Programmes in the BBC's Midland Region, which already trans- mits in Urdu and Hindi for Asian residents. We sat last year in the hotel at Paddington station, and he said: I want us to do something.' What we have done is Rainbow City. This is an entertainment serial about West Indians living in and around Birming- ham, and the chief character is a lawyer. He is much like any other family solicitor, al- though he happens to be Jamaican, and the people who come to him-mainly other immigrants-have the same recognisable egos and psyches, hopes, fears, and difficulties as the rest of us, plus a few problems of their own: these are the bases of our story. I've never had the least doubt about this serial; mainly, I think, because I've known that there are West Indian actors, writers, and musicians in this country who can lift it right up. Normally, they have little chance of sustained, serious work, but they will be doing it for the next six weeks-and Errol John who plays the lawyer John Steele, and who plays his wife, Mary longer if you will have them.

Something Special PAULJONES POP-STARSoften start out young, but not many have made their first re- cord as early as Paul Jones. He was only twelve-a boy soprano in the Ports- mouth Grammar School Choir- when he made a disc of ' Oh, for the wings of a dove.' Tonight Paul Jones is featured in Something Special � but using the kind of material one would expect from one of Britain's leading pop artists. At school Paul formed a skiffle group.

There is a strike and in June 1966, he decided to go solo. Yorky is blacklisted. Then he and Mike go to work Since then this talented young man on what is called ' the Lump '-where the Union is has also branched out as an actor, unrecognised, no tax is paid, and their insurance co-starring with Jean Shrimpton in cards are not stamped.

LESLIE JACKSON t by and A Small tonight's guests Rebellion STARRING SIMONE SIGNORET AND GEORGE MAHARIS AMERICAN television has sometimes been criticised for not including enough serious, substantial drama in its output. If this is so, then an honourable exception must certainly be made in the case of Impact, which starts a new series on BBC-2 tonight. The production policy for Impact plays was simply to cast some of the world's best actors in strongly plotted, carefully written stories, and this policy paid off in high critical praise for the first series both in America and in Britain where it was shown on BBC-2 last year. Tonight's opening play is called A Small Rebellion, and in it the distinguished French actress Simone Signoret is paired with George Maharis. He plays a very angry young man of the theatre, an author who is violently determined that his work shall not be mutilated for com- mercial considerations-even though commercial success is needed to 8.35 establish him as a writer.

IF a vote should ever be taken on ' the man you'd most like for your next-door neigh- bour ' � then Andy Williams might well top the poll. Because one senses that Andy is one of the few showbusiness per- sonalities with no hint of veneer. This must be what he's really like at home-the genuine article. His own neighbourhood is Hollywood where he lives with his French wife, Claudine, and their two small children, who all appeared with him in his Christ- mas show last year. Bom in a modestly sized town (population 749) in Iowa, much of his early professional singing was in a quartet with his brothers. Two of them quit showbusiness, but Dick Williams sings for com- mercials in New York. Andy maintains that he hears his voice every time he turns on the radio! Brothers Bob and Don often visit the Andy Williams home where Claudine (who used to be an actress) cooks mainly French dishes, and her husband will sometimes barbecue steaks for their frequent small dinner THE parties. He is a fair golfer, plays with Bob Newhart, Fred MacMurray, how Harold Tom Sloan, Head of BBC-tv Light Entertainment, recalls and � on Sundays � Claudine. can watch the Andy and Albert became a success story.

RIDE AGAIN Tonight you can meet this Is delightful person again in the SHOW TELEVISION has many success stories, but I suppose there first of a new series of his own none than the comedy series Steptoe and Son, which greater and a re-run on BBC-tv tonight. To the accompaniment of slick, polished, enormously begins shows. one of the most catching signature tunes ever written, the entertaining heroic Hercules will draw the famous totters' cart across our screens to introduce us once again to Albert Steptoe and his frus- trated son Harold. It was back in 1962 that I asked Ray Galton and Alan Simpson if they would write a series of single comedy half-hours under the title . The fifth in the series was called 'The Offer,' starring two fine but relatively unknown actors, Wilfrid Brambell and Harry H. Corbett As soon as it was transmitted I begged the writers to write a series but they were most reluctant. To quote their own words: We think we have written a little piece of Pinter here and we can't repeat it.' After a great deal of discussion I persuaded them to write five more, and we ran a short series in . The rest is history. We had further series in 1963, 1964, and 1965 and the audiences rose to as high as 271 million viewers, with the repeats gaining something like 15 million. There had never been a television show which seemed to give so much pleasure, and I am sure the opportunity to see them all once again will be more than gratefully received. Learned men will advance the most complex reasons for its success -a study of old age and frustration treated with such compassion, and so on-but the real reason is that the scripts are magnificently constructed and outrageously funny, the acting is of the very highest standard, and the production is quite excellent. Steptoe and Son changed the whole pattern of situation comedy as we had known it in this country, and its benefits are to be seen today in shows like . You can also hear a radio adaptation o] Steptoe and Son at 2.0 p.m. in the Light Programme on Sundays and on Mondays at 8.15 p.m. Andy with two of his guests Peggy Lee and Tony Bennett FRIDAY
