The Raphael Loggia
Narrated by Marius Goring
One of the glories of Leningrad s Hermitage Museum is, in fact, a fake. Catherine the Great had a passion for the classical art of Europe. When in Rome, she fell in love with Raphael's designs for a magnificent gallery. She had to have just such a gallery herself.

The last of six programmes A Town Like New Orleans?
' About nine years ago, a friend of mine said to me, "Leeds is going to expand musically, it s going to be like New Orleans And I thought.... this guy is off his nut.'
(JACK BENNETT of the All Stars)
At the last estimate there were something like 200 small groups playing live music in the Leeds area alone. Most have other jobs, some are unemployed. Some hope that one day they will make it and make a living by playing, others simply play for the hell of it.
Tonight's film looks at just a small cross-section of the grass roots of music in the city, hears a little of the hows and the whys, and a lot of the music. Whatever your tastes, from punk to jazz, folk to electronic, you should hear enough to convince you that Leeds is in fact a town like any other town. A town like New Orleans?
