This programme brings, for the first time, a moment-by-moment account of the second moon landing - as it happened. Because the television camera failed on the moon we have had to wait for the processing and editing of some of the most spectacular space film and sound tracks yet to be screened.

This film records the astronauts' split-second response to those critical moments when lightning apparently struck the space craft on lift-off. It also shows them relaxing on the moon, in the nearest thing yet to a lunar laugh-in, as they sing, whistle, chat and 'send-up' themselves as well as their more sombre predecessors.

with Cliff Michelmore

In 1961, for reasons which had nothing to do with naval strategy, the Aga Khan spent £180 million to obtain just 90 miles of Sardinia's north-east coastline. He and his friends dreamed of transforming it into the world's most sophisticated playground - a rival to the Riviera, a counter to the Caribbean.
The Costa Smeralda has now become a holiday paradise where the rich and beautiful people go to relax.
If the thought of that money makes you nervous, you may find it easier to relax with a caravan holiday in Tenby, on the South Wales coast.

A series of movie milestones from Hollywood - the home of the film spectacular - tonight starring Gene Kelly, Dan Dailey, Cyd Charisse with Dolores Gray, Michael Kidd

Tonight's film - one of the last of MGM's great dance musicals - was choreographed by Michael Kidd, dance director of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. He also joins Gene Kelly and Dan Dailey in front of the cameras to play one of the three soldiers who meet for a reunion 10 years after the war is over. Many of the numbers are startlingly different - including one with the three stars dancing on dustbin lids!
