The Five Nations Championship
England v Scotland
The Save and Prosper International
Wales v Ireland
The Lumley's International Nigel Starmer-Smith introduces highlights of the weekend's internationals. England were over-run by Scotland last year, and needed to improve a lot to eliminate the memory of the 33-6 defeat. Wales beat Ireland after trailing by eight points thanks to the performance of Jonathan Davies - the key figure once again. After their 60-0 defeat of Romania, Ireland are cock-a-hoop.

Symphony No 2 in C minor, Op 17 (Little Russian)

BBC Welsh Symphony Orchestra conducted by Mariss Yansons From the Brangwyn Hall, Swansea. Introduced by Humphrey Burton and H. C. Robbins-Landon
(Symphony No 3 tonight at 8.35pm)

Sweet Water, Bitter Sea Written and narrated by Peter France
Part two of a wildlife exploration of the Holy Land. There is a great wilderness in Israel, where the Judaean desert plunges hundreds of metres below the level of the Mediterranean and meets the shoreline of the Dead Sea.
In this cauldron of heat and sulphur smells, no fish swim in the bitter and imprisoned waters. But where springs bring sweet water from the rocks of the Judaean mountains, life flourishes.
At Ein Gedi oasis desert birds find shade and food. The high cliffs are the realm of the sure-footed ibex. Below, in the rocky wadis, live foxes, hyenas and the hyrax - a rabbit-sized relative of the elephant!

Symphony No 3 in D major, Op 29
BBC Welsh Symphony Orchestra conducted by Mariss Yansons From St David 's Hall, Cardiff Introduced by Humphrey Burton and H. C. Robbins-Landon , who says: 'This symphony, although not perhaps as perfect as those that preceded and those following it, is by no means a mean achievement. Certainly without this symphony, without the experience, the marvellous orchestral way in which he worked it out, without that - no four, five, six.'
(Symphony No 4 tomorrow at 9.50pm)
