La Ronde: When first performed in Vienna in 1921, it started a riot. Playwright Arthur Schnitzler himself banned all further performances. Now it's out of copyright and everybody, even the BBC, seems to be doing it. John Barton. Caspar Wrede and Susan Fleetwood talk about the problems of putting on a classic that nobody has seen. Frankie Howerd in 'Die Fledermaus' at the English National Opera: Mr Howerd tells all. The Great Japan Exhibition: Edward Heath is an enthusiast of Japanese art. He shows what he likes best at part 2 of what's been called the greatest art show of them all.
