The History Man

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

A four-part screenplay by CHRISTOPHER HAMPTON from the novel by MALCOLM BRADBURY starring and 4: Gross Moral Turpitude
' History charges everyone a price for the stands they choose to make.' Howard seems to be about to pay his dues, but in the fight for his academic life, the University is the battlefield. As in any war the choice of survivors - and casualties - is very arbitrary and contingent.
