For centuries - particularly in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance - much of European music has involved singing praise to God. Christopher
Page and his guests Eamon Duffy and David Melling ask why the expression of heavenly praise through song has had such a potent and enduring appeal, and what it tells us about the nature of human love for God.

Culture's Not for Us?
In the last of three documentaries charting the history of the Third
Programme and Radio 3, Humphrey Carpenter investigates the impact of the 1969 announcement that the Third Programme would be abolished, and examines the changing sound of the programmes. Some of the Third's most famous voices - including
Richard Baker , Cormac Rigby and Tom Crowe - reflect on changing styles behind the microphone. And former controllers including
Harman Grisewood , Stephen Hearst , Ian Mclntyre and John Drummond consider two questions which have provoked much debate over the past 50 years: what is the role of a cultural radio network, and who are its listeners?

Despite defeat, the rebels are still plotting against King Henry, who has fallen sick. Hal is weary of life at court, and continues his adventures in the tavern. The dying king despairs once more of his wayward son. Falstaff profits again from his relationship with Hal, believing that high office awaits him when Hal is crowned king.
Musicians Sue Baxendale , Elizabeth Brierley , Steven Magee. Alan Morrison and Valerie Stark. Composer Paddy Cuneen. Director Michael Fox Repeat
