Another one of the play-lets in the Noel Coward Collection from BBC, this one has Paul Scofield and Deborah Kerr; Kerr had starred in An Affair to Remember opposite Cary Grant. The play opens with the writer Hugo (Scofield) and Hilde, who seems to be his wife (June Tobin), discussing his upcoming dinner date with his old flame Carlotta (Deborah Kerr). The conversation for the first act revolves around just how much Hugo will enjoy having dinner with his former love. Then she arrives, and Hilda gets the whole scoop while Hugo is dressing. Bruce Lidington again plays Felix , the butler, and it's entirely too bad that they didn't give him a larger part in this one, as they did in "Come into the Garden Maud", which also had Scofield and Lidington in the cast. While Hugo has always been the more successful author, it turns out that Carlotta has a surprise or two of her own. Interesting story. N. Coward makes you want to watch this one all the way to the end. While this was one of Kerr's last roles, it appears she retired from film and TV a good 20 years before she died in 2007. Kerr had been nominated numerous times, but it was Scofield who won the Oscar for "Man for all Seasons".
