Then and Now
In the last of three programmes John Steane discusses the way in which McCormack's art survives today through records and compares that with what critics had to say about the singer during his lifetime.
Producer PETER TANNER : Mono

The last of three programmes Unification and the Creation
Until recently the question of why the universe exists was thought to be beyond the scope of science. But a few years ago physicists studying the sub-nuclear constituents of matter stumbled across a surprising connection between their particle theories and the origin of the universe.
Paul Davies , Professor of Theoretical Physics at
Newcastle University, examines how far this link between the very small and the very big has taken us in unifying the laws of physics and accounting for the cosmic creation.
