The BBC asked the public to submit details about their local area to help compile a digital snapshot of the country. All the data - pictures, maps, video, surveys, statistics, essays and personal testimonies - were digitally etched into the two laser discs. However the system rapidly fell into obsolescence and very few people ever got to see the finished results. Now, 25 years on, the archive will be republished online giving people of all ages an opportunity to explore the images and articles from the past. Visitors will also be able to help bring the project into the present day by sending in their current stories, comments and photographs, via the website, blogs and Twitter. The project will be supported by programmes on Radio 4 and local radio and TV. Go to www.bbc.co.uk/domesday <http://www.bbc.co.uk/domesday> to start browsing from 12 May 2011. The BBC will be distributing promotional packs in June, giving more information on the project and ideas on different ways to get involved. Dig! (tbc September 2011) BBC Two's Digging for Britain is returning for a second series, currently planned for broadcast this September.

The campaign is looking to work with, and link up, Archaeological societies, museums and libraries to showcase local finds and run hands-on activities with the public to help them learn practical historical and archaeological skills.

Reel History of Britain (Autumn 2011) In this programme Melvyn Bragg meets people as they recount fascinating and surprising stories about how life in Britain used to be, as told through the moving reels of the British Film Institute's and regional archive collections. The programme will use archive and real stories to highlight the hardships and simple pleasures of the past, as well as the enormous social changes that took place from 1900 onwards, building to a compelling social history of Britain. Hands on History are looking to connect people with their past through film.

BBC Things To Do The BBC have recently launched their new activity finder website called Things To Do <http://www.bbc.co.uk/thingstodo> The Things To Do website will enable the public to find activities and events being run by the BBC or their partner organisations such as libraries. People will be able to find out about activities in a very visually appealing way, on a website that is easy to navigate. It supports the ambition of the BBC to engage people in 'hands-on' activities that inform, entertain and inspire further learning. The BBC will promote the Things To Do website on an ongoing basis through television and radio programmes, on the BBC's homepage, on BBC Local and regional pages, and on BBC genre pages such as history, nature, science, food etc. It will also have a version for internet enabled mobile phones. All activities and events on there must be linked to a BBC project i.e. a BBC television or radio programme, or other specific BBC campaign. We are working with Culture24, a not-for-profit online publisher and the official cultural data provider to the BBC. They'll be supplying information on activities happening in libraries, museums, galleries, heritage sites and other cultural venues directly from their database to the BBC Things To Do website.
