Keep the programs coming!
| You've heard us talking about the need to meet our membership budget goal by the end of the fiscal year, August 31. Thanks to hundreds of Friends of KSPS who supported us in June and July, we are down to $310,000 left to raise-- less than 9% of our budget. But that last amount is so important! If you are able, please renew or contribute an extra gift to help us meet this important goal by August 31. Now is the time!

Greetings!
If you want to see the best in what television has to offer, look no further than Masterpiece Mystery! The final episode in this year's season of Inspector Lewis airs Sunday night, but the mysteries will continue. Encore broadcasts from last year's Inspector Lewis begin on August 26. And September brings new episodes with Kenneth Branagh starring in the gritty Swedish crime drama Wallander.
Enjoy everything KSPS has to offer, after all, it's because of YOU!

When controversial American academic, Paul Yelland, is invited to speak at Oxford's Department of Criminology, it stirs up a lot of deep- seated emotions.

9pt/10mt - Space Shuttle: A Horizon Guide Special 
It was three decades ago that the first space shuttle, Columbia, was launched. It was such a triumph of technology, engineering and organization that it's easy to forget the program was primarily the product of an economy drive. The disposable Apollo missions had cost billions. A reusable craft was deemed more expedient. The Shuttle story has been characterized by incredible triumphs, but blighted by devastating tragedies - and the BBC and Horizon have chronicled every step of its career.

9pt/10mt - Foyle's War: The German Woman (part  two)
Set along the South Coast of England in the 1940s, Foyle's War stars Michael Kitchen as the no-nonsense Detective Chief Superintendent Christopher Foyle, the straightforward sleuth who fights his own battles on the homefront while war rages across Europe. In tonight's conclusion to The German Woman, Foyle finds there is more to the Beaumont family than meets the eye, and he finds corruption in his own police force.
