BBC outside broadcast cameras bring you the second day's play, featuring The First Round of the Ladies' Singles
If you're trying to pick the winner of this event, defending champion Margaret Court and three-time winner Billie Jean King would almost certainly top your short list. Add Rosemary Casals, Virginia Wade, Evonne Goolagong, Francoise Durr or any one of a host of top international competitors, and you finish up with as fascinating a choice and as testing a competition as you could wish. Harry Carpenter introduces the best of the Ladies' matches on the Centre Court and No 1 Court, and provides all the news and results from the outside courts.

A film by Anthony de Lotbiniere
The story of a living legend - His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia

Tracing his descent from King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba this tiny old man now nearing 80 looks back on a reign that has brought Ethiopia out of the Dark Ages, and on a life which more than any other man's symbolises Africa's emergence into the 20th century.

First African to be treated by white men as an equal and the first man to be sacrificed by them in the name of appeasement. He has learnt to trust nobody and yet has won the respect of the world. Father-figure of modern Africa and relic of a vanishing world, he is more of a symbol than a man - the incarnation of the history of our time.
