Frederick Delius
Songs of Farewell
The years between the end of World War I and Deliuss death in 1934 were years of steadily growing pain and suffering for the composer as he gradually succumbed to paralysis and blindness. He became increasingly reliant on his wife, Jelka, and later on Eric Fenby to take down his complex compositions by the laborious process of dictation. In the very last works, he was often drawn to material and sketches from several years before.

The last of eight documentary programmes written and presented by Michael Charllon , which examine what have been called the ' missed opportunities ' of Britain's European diplomacy between the final years of the Second World War and de Gaulle's veto of the United Kingdom's bid tt. join the EEC.
8: The Great Refusal
Why, in January 1963. did the President of France veto the British application? Did
Mr Macmillan misjudge his personal influence with de Gaulle? Was Polaris a pretext or the reason for the refusal? Were the tactics of the negotiations misconceived?
