On the box tonight:

BBC2 9.00pm

The Race For Everest

A must see just two days before the 50th anniversary of the first ascent of Everest, unless of course, you've seen and heard enough of it already. This 60-minute documentary tells the story leading up to the 1953 expedition and contains previously unscreened footage from the official 1953 film as well as interviews with surviving members of the team. Should be compelling
