Man of Letters

A 'Play for today' or 'Screen 2', half an hour drama of a really old fashioned type that seems labouriously slow by today's fast edited pace.

Designed by Geoff Powell and assisted by myself, this was my first experience of designing a drama at the BBC. Set in the 1920's we built a suburban house interior and traditional Teashop.

Starring Michael Jayston.
