1/10. To celebrate the centenary of the birth of Anthony Powell , Derek Jacobi reads from this sharp comedy of manners. Zouch has been invited to stay at Passenger Court, country home of the Passenger family, by the youngest daughter, Mary. But his beard and his profession as a portrait painter are seen as a handicap among the unsophisticated county set. Abridger/Producer Jane Marshall
