American Friends

on BBC Two England

Sprightly period romantic drama starring
Michael Palin. The closeted, celibate life of an Oxford college in the 1860s seems the perfect environment for Francis Ashby. But on a walking holiday, he meets two American ladies and a tantalising friendship raises romantic aspirations. Review page 54.
Director Tristram Powell (1991. PG)
