7PM
2 3 6m 13f Shakespeare Plays
'The Tempest.' The tempest that left a number of shipwreck survivors stranded on a Mediterranean island was no outburst of nature. The storm was magically orchestrated by the island's ruler Prospero (Michael Hordern), who was usurped of his dukedom many years earlier by his brother Antonio (Derek Godfrey). Now, it is in Prospero's realm-an enchanted land inhabited also by his daughter Miranda (Pippa Guard), the sprite Ariel (David Dixon) and the half-human 'thing of darkness' Caliban (Warren Clarke)-that Antonio and some treacherous companions are cast adrift, separated and controlled. Directed by John Gorrie.
4 Prescription for Life
Host Joseph Campanella explores the efforts of missionary doctors and nurses to prevent lives in Third World countries such as Bangladesh, Haiti, Cambodia and India. [Preempts regular programming - which was Dolly & Carol in Nashville. Surprising, since most of eastern ND is farmland and a lot of country listeners.]
5 6f 8d 8w 10 Real People

Special: Regular cast members from 'Soap' and 'Eight is Enough' take on those from 'All My Children' and 'General Hospital.' Host: Richard Dawson.
11w 12 13m Dolly & Carol in Nashville
Special: Dolly Parton and Carol Burnett in concert at the Grand Ole Opry. The hour opens with an original song that introduces the duo as a mutual admiration society, then goes country with 'No One Picks Like a Nashville Picker Picks,' a Parton-Burnett duet that is backed by some fancy pickin' on guitars, banjos and fiddles. A variation of this song crops up later in a stylishly choreographed production number that subs 'kicks' for 'picks'. The headliners also team for a gospel medley that includes 'Amazing Grace,' 'Sweet By and By' and 'Let it Shine'; and harmonize on selections from 'heart' songs, such as 'Dear Hearts and Gentle People,' 'Heartbreak Hotel,' 'It's a Heartache' and 'Heartaches by the Number.' And there's comedy: a sketch that casts Burnett as a tombyo and Parton as a homebody-who grows up to steal the neighborhood guys from Carol.
