Straddling the Age of Reformation and the Age of Reason, Charles 11 practised the royal touch and patronised the Royal Society. Three hundred years after his death, Dr John Morrill , Fellow of Selwyn College, Cambridge, reflects on such apparent contradictions and argues that beneath a surface disguise, and behind the lazy pragmatism which marked his day-to-day governing, Charles remained recognisably his father's son.

Oscar Shumsky is one of the true greats of the 20th century, and I have a very sincere regret that my own country has not officially recognised that. (LEONARD ROSE) When Oscar Shumsky was a child, Fritz Kreisler predicted that he would be one of the greatest violinists of his generation. That he didn't make an international career as a soloist is a mystery his colleagues find hard to explain. David Wheeler presents a documentary profile of the 67-year-old virtuoso. With contributions from
EUGENE DRUCKER , RODNEY FRIEND, JOSEF GINGOLD , MILTON KATIMS , LEONARD ROSE, EARL WILD and OSCAR SHUMSKY himself. Producer CATHY WEARING
