The Hunt for the Tenth Planet
Is there a new planet in the solar system? Many astronomers believe that there is a massive body beyond Neptune, the outermost of the main planets now known. It could be a planet, but it might also be a dark star or a black hole. The movements of the two Pioneer spacecraft now on their way out of the solar system may provide valuable clues.
Patrick Moore has been having discussions with the American astronomers in charge of the investigation, and gives an up-to-date report.

A series of 13 programmes Written and presented by Robert Kee 6: Parnell
No man ever disturbed British democratic politics so profoundly as Charles Stewart Parnell. He raised Irish national political feeling to the most effective level it had ever achieved, and no British Prime Minister could rule without taking Parnell into consideration. His rise was meteoric; his fall was equally so. Overnight he lost his power in one of the greatest sexual scandals in the history of politics.

Bernard Levin talks to
Alfred Brendel
Recognised as one of the greatest pianists in the world, Alfred Brendel is famous for his interpretations of the music of Beethoven. Mozart, Schubert and Liszt. Renowned for his scholarly attention to the musical text, he is often described as an ' intellectual pianist '. He qualifies this by saying that ' feeling must remain the alpha and omega of a musician'. At a less rarefied level, Brendel is known among his colleagues as a man who relishes a good joke.
