I have been meaning to say that, together with Steerforth, excellent writer of Age of Uncertainty blog, I have set out on a mission to watch every available Play for Today. We will write about each one we see and we have made this blog for the purpose.
For those who don't know, Play for Today was a weekly programme on the BBC. As the name implies, it took the form of a play. It ran from 1970 to 1984 and I think Steerforth told me that there are 150 plays in the series. We may also include the Play for Today's predecessor, The Wednesday Play, if we are still keen at the end of the 150 plays ahead.
Well actually, I suppose there are only 147 now, as we've already covered three. And of that three, I really enjoyed two. The other was not really very good, but, for me at least, almost worth watching as its star was a very young. Ray Davies.
