The Sunday-Night Play presents: The Mather Story

on BBC Television

Written by John Prebble.
[Starring] Sheila Allen, William Lucas, John Barrie and Raymond Huntley
with Geoffrey Dunn, Harold Scott
A serious accusation by a famous artist about the work of another gives John Ramsay a chance to 'get something into the paper' and perhaps to keep his job on the Sunday Herald. But rapidly the story becomes a challenge-to his skill, and to his responsibility.
