Re: [Swprograms] Fifty Years Of Human Spaceflight - BBC World Service examines The Yuri Gagarin Legacy

["Alan Roe" <alan-roe@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This programme is being broadcast as part of the "Discovery" strand, which
since 27 March has been cut back to 18 minutes.  The press release refers to
topics for this programme in parts one, two and three.  Discovery is
typically followed by "From Our Own Correspondent", and I would be sightly
surprised if this was dropped.  So my guess is that the "One-Hour Special"
is actually 3 x 18 minute episodes starting this week (first airing Monday
11 April at 1932UTC) and continuing for the next two weeks.

But, I'm probably completely wrong!
