Now and at the Hour of Our Birth by BRUCE STEWART with Lee Montague Helen Horton Robert Beatty Ed Bishop
Paul Maxwell
Was Jim Jones , the leader of the People's Temple (whose members committed mass suicide in Guyana in 1978) insane? If he was, then the madness did not manifest itself so much in the new social order he intended to create, but in the methods he used to bring it about - the methods of a paranoid whose mind was under the constant influence of drugs.
GEOFFREY BRAWN (organ and celeste)
Directed by MARTIN JENKINS (Repeated: next Sun 2.30) Preview: page 23
