by Dennis Potter
with Colin Blakely as Jesus, Robert Hardy as Pontius Pilate, Bernard Hepton as Caiaphas
See page 33

This play is about Jesus the man; it is also about the religious, political, and military climate in which he lived.
Jerusalem is expecting a Messiah. The occupying Romans, under Pontius Pilate, put down religious fanatics and their followers with brutality. It is a time of change and of violence - not entirely unlike today.
The play sees Jesus very much as a man; a man capable of friendship and of anger, of doubt and of laughter. He is a man haunted by the question 'Am I indeed the Messiah?'; by his knowledge of his fate, 'They shall nail him upon the Cross'; and yet hounded by an inner conviction of his mission.

In Britain nearly five million experiments upon live animals are carried out each year. The safeguard for the public conscience is the Cruelty to Animals Act of 1876 and over the years there have been many demands to revise the legislation.
Most recently the report of the Littlewood Committee contained more than eighty recommendations designed to bring the law up to date. The Report has been gathering dust ever since it was published in 1965. Now scientists are using new breeds of animals-some derived by hysterectomy techniques and described as 'germ free.' Experimental work grows with each new scientific discovery.
Fyfe Robertson reports on the dilemmas posed by the mounting toll upon animals.
