1985 by GUY MEREDITH

on BBC Radio 3

based on the novel by ANTHONY BURGESS
George Orwell is not on the school syllabus. Strictly speaking, Bev Jones should not give lectures on Nineteen
Eighty-four, especially to an empty classroom during a teachers' strike. But Bev has to take some stand against the process that killed his wife, even if it brings destitution. Directed by MICHAEL HEFFERNAN (R)
