Tomorrow sees the start of the Lombard RAC Rally - the last round of this year's
World Rally Championship. Once more Lancia dominate, having already won both the manufacturer's and drivers' titles, but who will provide their greatest challenge over the next five days and 2,000 tortuous miles? Will it be the Russians - over here for the first time in recent years - the Scandinavians, the Japanese or the British? It may even be a lone
Australian, ROSS DUNKERTON , still convinced that the event is 'full of people with unpronouncable names who will all be driving very quickly between London and Brighton!'
William Woollard and Tony Mason watch some of the preparations, meet the drivers and preview what has become one of the country's largest motor-sporting events.

by Benjamin Britten
Libretto by E.M. Forster and Eric Crozier from the story by Herman Melville

Michael Berkeley introduces this masterly opera from Britten's maturity. It is a story of the conflict between love and duty set at the time of the Napoleonic Wars on board a British warship, HMS Indomitable.

This production was staged at the English National Opera last spring, and Tim Albery's radical production drew uniformly high praise from press and public.
Thomas Allen is Billy Budd, Philip Langridge is Captain Vere, and Richard Van Allan is Claggart

8.25 Michael Berkeley talks to Eric Crozier, Theodor Upmann, Thomas Allen and Tim Albery about the opera's origins as well as its various and sometimes controversial interpretations.

8.45* Act 2

(A simultaneous broadcast with Radio 3. Viewers with stereo Radio 3 may wish to turn off TV sound and position their speakers on either side of the screen, but a few feet away. Stereo headphones provide a suitable alternative.)

Film director
Martin Scorsese introduces Michael Powell 's celebrated horror film.
Peeping Tom starring
Carl Boehm
Anna Massey
To supplement his income as an assistant cameraman in a film studio, Mark Lewis takes girlie photographs for a local shop.
Gradually his disturbed psyche - the result of terrifying experiments on him by his father - becomes obsessed by the lust to murder. Not content with killing, he decides that he wants to photograph the victims in their death throes. This remarkable film caused considerable controversy on its initial release but is now regarded as one of the great classics of British cinema.
