Playbill: The Mayfly and the Frog

BBC One
on BBC One London

by Jack Russell.
[Starring] John Gielgud
with Isa Miranda, David Stoll and Felicity Kendall

"We had an enchanting piece of make believe in 'The Mayfly and the Frog', last night's Wednesday Play on BBC-1, acted with such a light, graceful touch by Sir John Gielgud and Felicity Kendall that it dissolved in the end like stardust." (The Times)
"Felicity Kendall gave Mayfly integrity and charm, John Gielgud gave the millionaire a fragile melancholy with impeccable acting: Robin Midgley's direction had style and an assured tempo." (The Guardian)
