BBC Two - Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

A young white woman becomes engaged to a black doctor (Sidney Poitier).

Vintage social comedy. A young white woman's parents have to do some soul-searching when she gets engaged to a black doctor.

Social comedy drama about the consequences of a young white woman's announcement to her upper-middle-class parents that she plans to marry a black research physician. When the groom-to-be lets it be known that the wedding will not take place without their consent, the parents are forced to do some serious soul-searching. 

Oscar-winning comedy-drama, and Spencer Tracy's final film.

BBC Two is a lively channel of depth and substance, carrying a range of knowledge-building programming complemented by great drama, comedy and arts.
