NEW SERIES

The first of ten programmes. Making Sense ... of Religion
'Now that technology has taken human beings right into the heavens, into what our ancestors regarded as the very dwelling-place of God, is there still a place for religion? Or are we now so much controllers of our own destiny that religion no longer makes sense?'
The Rev Donald Reeves , rector of St James 's,
Piccadilly in London, believes it does, but it must be a religion which takes account of the real world and which finds new ways of speaking about God.

Anne Brown meets
HRH the Princess Royal, who is a leading figure in the equestrian world, to talk about safety and riding.
Horse riding is arguably the most dangerous sport in Britain, with eight riders a day involved in accidents on the roads. Yet the sport is increasingly popular and over three million people now ride regularly, many of them taking to the roads at some time.
Riding school owners, medical experts and the police consider possible solutions such as off-road facilities for riders.

Presented by Jonathan Dimbleby with John Cole.
The Tories: What Next?
On the tenth anniversary of Mrs Thatcher's election as Prime Minister, On the Record looks not backwards but forwards and asks: where does Conservatism go from here? In a special report, Jonathan Dimbleby charts two alternative routes ahead which are already provoking sharp internal debate and which could lead to major divisions within the party. With the help of leading
Conservative politicians and important new polling evidence, On the Record navigates the choppy waters that lie ahead for the Conservative Party.

with the deaf from Falkirk.
Deafness is an invisible handicap and is therefore often misunderstood. Tonight Roger Royle meets hearing-impaired people from all over Scotland. He meets Maissie Baillie, an Elder at the Albany Deaf Church, whose vivacity and humour are a support to a deaf and blind friend. Roger also visits two schools: Windsor Park School for the Deaf in Falkirk and Donaldson's School in Edinburgh.
The percussionist Evelyn Glennie talks to Roger about her life and work.
A hearing and deaf congregation have come together from all over Scotland to St Andrew's Kirk in Falkirk to sing and sign tonight's hymns.

Say One for Me
'I pray for people in Ethiopia ... and I do have a best friend who's got eczema and it's irritating her and I pray it gets better.' Just like that 10-year-old, believers and unbelievers pray for extra power in times of difficulty. Each faith reveals its personality in the way requests are made.
But perhaps God shouldn't intervene if our freedom matters. What's more, if help comes for some worthy cases, why not for others? Some find it helpful to think of prayer releasing what's in nature rather than calling in power from outside. In spite of the puzzles, asking comes naturally and people feel it helps.
