Omnibus: Noel Coward: Playwright

BBC One
on BBC One London

'I used to write plays when I was about eleven. I suppose it was an absolute gift, because I left school when I was nine, I went on the stage when I was 10, and so I didn't have any formal education, which left me free to educate myself.'
'I think writing is an art and a craft and if you can combine the two you make a living out of it'
Noel Coward talks to Patrick Garland about his career as a playwright.
Introduced by Ronald Bryden with excerpts from The Vortex, Hay Fever, Blithe Spirit, This Happy Breed, and Star
(Noel Coward's two week birthday party: pages 60-65)
