Gloucestershire v Cornwall at the Memorial Ground, Bristol
Gloucestershire have the most remarkable record in the County Championship having been in the final for the last five years, and are the current holders of the title.
Cornwall last appeared in a final six years ago, but in their match with Gloucestershire last year were narrowly defeated 9-7 having had numerous penalty chances and a disallowed try which would certainly have reversed the result. Commentator

Choreographer GEORGE MELITONO-VITCH BALANCHIVADZE - it was Diaghilev who shortened that long Georgian name to the now famous and familiar George Balan chine. This is the first of four programmes devoted to works by him, performed by the company with which he is so closely identified, the New York City Ballet.
Symphony in C: in 1948 this work was among those given at the opening performance by the New York City Ballet. Each movement of Bizet's symphony is danced by a different group of soloists and corps de ballet, the whole company uniting for the finale.
Agon: created in 1957, this is one of many great works resulting from the collaboration between Balanchine and Stravinsky that began under Diaghilev with Apollon Musagète and continued until the composer's death.

In an old hotel on the South Coast, Professor Zita Albes runs a school for children with learning difficulties. Their problems are so severe that they could not cope with life in ordinary schools and yet they are not mentally subnormal-they are the 'children of no man's land.' But this school provides a place to belong and a community that cares. Using her own unique methods PROFESSOR ALBES develops their individual-talents and fits them for life in the world outside.
