Golf from Royal Lytham and St Annes Golf Club.
117th Open Championship
BOBBY JONES (291), TONY LOCKE (287), PETER THOMSON (278), BOB CHARLES (277), TONY JACKLIN (280), GARY PLAYER (282), SEVE BALLESTEROS (283) have served to honour the international status of the Championship at Lytham. Indeed South Africa has 'dominated' here! The United States are long overdue with TOM 'MAC' WATSON the last American to win, at Birkdale way back in 1983. CURTIS STRANGE, the US Open Champion, is in the vanguard. So who will it be and what total score to win? Will it be a play off, British-style? Or will the tournament leader never be headed? Watch this space very carefully for all the answers. Commentators PETER ALLISS, BRUCE CRITCHLEY. CLIVE CLARK ALEX HAY and TONY JACKLIN

An Arena special
An Englishman's Home
Last of three programmes.
When Waugh died his friend Graham Greene felt 'as if one's commanding officer were dead'.
During his last 20 years
Waugh retreated from the outside world, increasingly obsessed with mortality - at the same time cultivating the cantankerous personality that became his abiding image. With contributions from his priest, neighbours and family, Arena looks behind the public mask of Evelyn Waugh. Essentia

A four part serial by Carol Bunyan
Original story by Ron Hutchinson
Starring Bryan Murray as Michael, Paul Jesson as Courtney, Fiona Victory as Kate with Eileen Nicholas as Mrs Courtney and David Keane as Dean

For Michael, Kate and Dean every knock at the door is a potential threat; every conversation dangerous. Yet Courtney begins to suspect that the explosion - if and when it comes - may be within the family itself rather than from the outside.
