ScreenPlay: Next: The Venus de Milo Instead

on BBC Two England

by Anne Devlin
Starring Jeananne Crowley, Lorcan Cranitch and Iain Cuthbertson.

The second of a trilogy of films looking at the next Northern Ireland generation - from Paris, from the past and from the Stretford End.

Mrs Grey is a Catholic teacher at a Protestant school and Mr Scott is the French teacher who wants to take her to Paris with him. But Miss Black wants to go and so does the headmaster. Heather, Fiona, Shirley and Tracey have never been to Paris before, nor have Downes, Dobson, Fullerton or McKay; nor Trevor who is 11 and sees everything. And Tracey who is 14 wants to see the Mona Lisa, but the picture is so small and the salon so crowded she can't see anything - so she goes to see the Venus de Milo instead.

With Allison Smyth, Suzanne Adair, Janine Caughey, Janis Spratt, Andrew Snowdon, Alex Davidson, Simon Gregg, Neill Geddes, Conor Stanage, David Graham, Michael Johnston, Eileen Cousins, Stephen Mcnulty and Gerard Mccormick

(The third film in the trilogy, The Rockingham Shoot, tomorrow at 9.50pm)
