[Starring Harry Worth]
featuring Norman Bird as Mr. Varley, Richard Coleman as Dr. Fanshaw, Ruth Kettlewell as Sister Leech, Jan Butlin as the Nurse, Denis Cleary as the Porter
Harry Worth gives you another chance to laugh at a series of unlikely situations

This is the first of six repeat showings of stories that Harry Worth and writer, Ronnie Taylor, like best from two previous series. Tonight Our Hero has joined the Men's Friendship League and is fulfilling his duties as a hospital visitor. It is unfortunate that he is chosen to sit at the bedside of one of the more cantankerous patients - and worse still that he has mistakenly concluded that the poor chap has only hours to live...

by Errol John
[Starring] Errol John as Jimmy Cardinez, Esther Anderson as Esla, Michael Griffiths as Kester McWilliams, Lelia Goldoni as Gabriella
BBC film

Tonight's play by West Indian author-actor Errol John is very much a black man's view of white society. Jimmy Cardinez, a West Indian who has lived most of his life in America, comes to Europe on a sentimental journey to revisit the places he saw during the second world war. By accident, in Coventry Cathedral, he meets a cousin of his, Kester McWilliams. Kester and his sister Esla are rich, sophisticated West Indians who can largely pass for white. Esla lives in London working as an artist and sharing a flat with Gabriella, a mondaine fashion editor; Kester is teaching at an English university. All are exiles at heart, and tonight's play follows the four characters as they move among a white society and tries to convey the feeling of emotional exile that affects each of them.
