Play for Today: A Passage to England

on BBC One London

A comedy by Leon Griffiths
To Anand, England is still the land of fair play and the village green. But he is stranded in Amsterdam with his pretty cousin and their sick uncle. The trio are prepared to offer all they have for a passage. And Onslow is prepared to take them-on his terms. Are the two parties wise to trust each Other?
"A first-class play which played some neat tricks on preconceived notions."
(Sunday Times)
"...unusual and deliciously entertaining, fantasising on what is normally a grim theme." (Morning Star)
"One of the finest plays of the year... exquisitely balanced game of bluff and counter-bluff." (Daily Express)
