A chance to see recent BBC programmes, with sign language and subtitles for the deaf and hard-of-hearing. Today: Visions of Change
For about 25 years, until the middle of the 1950s, the cinema newsreel was still - for most people - their most important window on the world. By 1955 television had already become a serious rival to the newsreels, and by the end of the 50s it had completely replaced them. What kind of changes did television bring to the way people looked at their world? Sign language interpretation by JOHN LEE

with Rabbi Julia Neuberger What's Your Poison?
Are we the best people to make choices about our entertainment? Do we choose books, papers, films and plays because of their excellence or because they are hyped and available? Why should we expect journalists and entertainers to pursue high ideals when we readily consume trash? Does screen violence or soap amorality leak over into reality?
Can fiction influence fact and should some forms of entertainment carry emotional health warnings? Julia Neuberger tries to find answers to these questions with Rowanne Pascoe
