I remember little about this play other than that I enjoyed Ronald Lacey's performance. The final scene has stayed with me for 30 plus years it was so powerful.Why it has never been reshown has always baffled me. Lacey always gives a great performance (usually creepy, he was typecast - though I am sure there was more to him than that)The BBC must have a wealth of material which would deserve to be seen again.OK so technology has moved on and the quality of image might not stand up to todays standards but quality drama is quality drama and must be enjoyed by as many people as possible. Perhaps we should petition the BBC and encourage them to go through the archives and find treasures like this play.
