Tennis – Australian Open

Saturday 30 January
1.00-2.00pm ´óÏó´«Ã½ ONE

Sue Barker presents highlights from the women's singles final at the 2010 Australian Open. Serena Williams won last year's final to join an elite group of female players to have won 10 Grand Slam titles, adding another at Wimbledon to finish 2009 as the world No. 1.

But the 28-year-old's most recent Grand Slam appearance ended with an astonishing tirade against a US Open line judge, and she will be anxious to put those memories behind her with a fifth Australian Open singles crown.

However, the competition often throws up a surprise – and with the likes of former world No. 1s Kim Clijsters and Justine Henin back in Melbourne after coming out of retirement, the identities of the 2010 finalists are far from easy to predict.

Cat Deeley and judges Nigel Lythgoe, Arlene Phillips, Louise Redknapp and Sisco Gomez continue the search to find Britain's favourite dancer in So You Think You Can Dance.

Casualty – The Cradle Will Fall

Saturday 30 January
8.50-9.40pm ´óÏó´«Ã½ ONE

It's a day of high tension as the young doctors try desperately to impress, with mixed fortunes, in the F2s' exam, as the medical drama continues.

May is given a pep talk by her father, Eddie, and is shocked when he hands her an envelope with the exam questions inside in order to help her along her way. And all the F2s are rattled when Jordan reveals that the exam will also include a day-long assessment, overseen by Henry.

Yuki falters while treating Seb, a seriously ill teenager, but redeems himself when he comes up with a brilliant diagnosis. However, when he bravely tells a packed meeting that Seb told him he no longer wants to receive treatment, Henry orders him out of the room.

Over-confident Lenny, meanwhile, is disappointed to be stuck in cubicles and, determined to impress, orders a series of tests for elderly patient Chick. However, he is distressed when the tests reveal something sinister and tries in vain to persuade his patient to accept treatment.

May initially impresses Henry when surgeon Sarah Evans is rushed to the ED having collapsed in theatre, but she fails to chase up a test result which puts Sarah in danger. She is then horrified to discover that her father and Sarah seem unusually close. When Eddie insists he wants someone more qualified than May to treat Sarah, May is shattered. But will her lack of confidence tempt her to take a peek at the exam questions?

Meanwhile, there's more heartbreak for the team as baby Harry is laid to rest and Ruth finally gathers the courage to tell Jay that she loves him – but is it too late?

Laura Aikman plays May, with David Mallinson as Eddie, Tom Chadbon as Henry, Will Sharpe as Yuki, Chris Fountain as Seb, Steve Miller as Lenny, Ron Moody as Chick, Julia St John as Sarah Evans, Georgia Taylor as Ruth and Ben Turner as Jay.

The Virtual Revolution – The Great Levelling? Ep 1/4

New series
Saturday 30 January
8.30-9.30pm ´óÏó´«Ã½ TWO

Dr Aleks Krotoski explores The Virtual Revolution
Dr Aleks Krotoski explores The Virtual Revolution

Twenty years on from the invention of the world wide web, this major new series takes stock of its profound impact – how, for better and for worse, the digital revolution is reshaping our lives.

Over four themed episodes that criss-cross the globe, journalist and academic Dr Aleks Krotoski explores the meaning of a phenomenon that is transforming everything, from how we learn to how we shop, vote and make friends. With a quarter of the planet connected so far, this series examines what is in store for the remaining 75 per cent of the world's population as they come online.

The first episode, The Great Levelling?, encounters some of the biggest names associated with the web today, including Bill Gates, Al Gore, Arianna Huffington, Wikipedia creator Jimmy Wales, YouTube CEO Chad Hurley and the inventor of the web himself, Tim Berners-Lee. Aleks discusses with them whether the web has lived up to the early dream of its pioneers to help empower people by providing equal access to global, instant and free information.

Tracing the libertarian values and outlook of the early web back to the counterculture of the Sixties, Aleks explores just how far the web is overturning old notions of ownership, expertise and creative freedom.

But rather than a simple "levelling" of humanity, she identifies a more complex cycle of revolutions at play in the web – a continuing clash between technological possibility and our desire to control and profit. It is this tension, she argues, that makes the web the extraordinarily diverse, fast-moving and powerful phenomenon that now has a grip on our lives.

Each of the four programmes is the result of a groundbreaking production process that invited web users to help shape the series at bbc.co.uk/digitalrevolution.

The Virtual Revolution is produced in partnership with the Open University.
