45: Jean Renoir : La Grande Illusion
Jean Renoir inherited an eye and a sensibility which were to put him among the greatest film makers. La Grande Illusion is his powerful condemnation of war. It was banned in Germany, and all prints were believed to have been destroyed. But a complete negative was discovered in Munich in 1945. A masterpiece had survived.
Producer Roger Fenby
The year 1944 saw the breaking of the siege of Leningrad, the Normandy landings and the liberation of Paris. In short, victory was in the Allies' grasp. For many composers, the prospect of such an achievement proved to be a rich source of inspiration. Continuing the series of weekly programmes exploring works first performed in each year of this century, Ivan Hewett introduces music from 1944.

Two hundred years ago, just after the disastrous 1798 uprising in Ireland, Richard Brinsley Sheridan , the most celebrated playwright of his time, started work on his new play, Pizarro. When it reached the stage, the play became a cultural sensation. Yet it was, in coded form, a defence of the deeply unpopular Irish uprising.
Fintan O'Toole reveals the story of this extraordinary cultural coup and uses Sheridan's theatrical stunt to explore the complex relationship between Ireland and Britain, treason and loyalty.
