Remember Your Lovers
- and remember Sydney Keyes? Very few people may do so. The author of the poem with that title was born 50 years ago this week. He was killed before he was even 21 in World War II's North African campaign, and had he not died he might have been one of our greatest living poets.
Trevor Howard, the distinguished film actor, who knew Keyes, talks about him and reads his poetry in this account of the life of a poet who died too young.

The Politics of Music
To mark next week's BBC concert at the Roundhouse, this film explores the new ideas that the distinguished French composer/conductor Pierre Boulez has brought to his work since he took over the BBC Symphony Orchestra last year. How far should music break down old traditions of concert-going? How to encourage new audiences? To what extent is music a political - even revolutionary - art?

A Bus Ride to the Festivals
Have you noticed in the last few weeks a very special sort of bus? Actors, film shows, music, mime? Ed Berman, writer and theatre director, has set up for the current Festivals of London what he calls a Fun Art Bus with trips and shows for passengers who care to climb aboard. Tonight it's the turn of Review to join the queue.
