The Royal Yacht Britannia brings Her Majesty The Queen and H.R.H. The Duke of Edinburgh into Guanabara Bay where they come ashore to fly to the new capital, Brasilia.

Recording of yesterday's outside broadcast presentation by Brazilian Television
The Arrival in Brasilia: 11.25 p.m.
The Queen's State Visit to South America is the first ever paid to that continent by a reigning British monarch. She arrives first in Brazil, the world's fifth largest country; and among places that she will visit are Rio de Janeiro, famed for its spectacular setting, and Brasilia, the nation's capital, which was founded little more than a decade ago.

starring Bernard Braden and Barbara Kelly

There is no reason why the arrival of Chantal, an attractive au pair girl, should upset the even tenor of the family's life. but for some reason it has an explosive effect which seems to set off a family crisis. This, the opening episode of a new comedy series, was first seen as a Comedy Playhouse, and was so well received by the public that it was decided to extend the idea.

The Jesse family are an apparently normal and happy household-until a mysterious and scruffy stranger starts following Mrs. Jesse around. Both Mr. Jesse and Julie, their daughter, become increasingly suspicious of the relationship between Mrs. Jesse and the stranger. Gradually a past is revealed which no one had ever suspected before. Its effect on the relationships between the members of the family is devastating.

from Bucharest
England, in their first international of the season, meet Rumania for the first time since May 1939, when England won 2-0 in Bucharest.
Television presentation by the Rumanian Television Service

'England will be breaking new ground in postwar football when they visit Bucharest to play Rumania', says Kenneth Wolstenholme.
'Only once previously in the history of the game has England played Rumania and that was in one of the last international matches before the Second World War, when England won 2-0. Rumania may seem a surprising choice for this international, but Sir Alf Ramsey wants the England team to have experience of all types of opposition before the World Cup, which is less than two years away, and Rumania will provide just the type of opposition which could upset even the best of sides. Consistency may not be their strong point, but when they are on their game they can turn out some tremendous performances, especially in their own country. They play the sort of strong, hard football which characterises our game as well as the game in countries such as Germany and Yugoslavia. So Sir Alf Ramsey could hardly have chosen a tougher first international of the season for his England team'.
