Radio Times is a British weekly listings
magazine devoted to television and radio programme schedules, with other
features such as interviews, film reviews and lifestyle items.
Founded in 1923 by John Reith, then general
manager of the British Broadcasting Company, it was the world's first broadcast
listings magazine. Originally it published Radio listings, then incorporated
Radio and TV listings for BBC companies but now incorporates all Terrestrial,
Satellite and streaming services.
It was published entirely in-house by BBC
Magazines from 8 January 1937 until 16 August 2011, when the division was
merged into Immediate Media Company. On 12 January 2017, Immediate Media was
bought by the German media group Hubert Burda.
The magazine is published on Tuesdays and
carries listings for the week from Saturday to Friday.
Every Fame episode of the 4 seasons broadcast by the BBC had it's own listing. You can view those in the individual Episode Pages on the Fame TV Series Archive. Some issues featured articles on the show and the cast. In fame's 4 year run the show had on Radio Times Cover. It was very unusual for an American show to grace the magazines cover at that time.
