A crime series
This week: Edward Woodward as Francis Didelot's Commissaire Bignon investigates the case of "The Poisoners", dramatised by Derek Ingrey

Always unable to resist an appeal from a beautiful woman, Bignon becomes intrigued by the curious behaviour of a girl who first runs to him for help and then refuses to tell him anything about her troubles. Ignoring his superior officer's advice to leave the matter alone, he begins to make a few tentative enquiries and suddenly finds himself involved in a highly complex case. He discovers the secrets of the Dangeville family; their tangled emotions and the strange pattern of the life they live behind a facade of aristocratic and academic respectability.

Tonight's film in a season of outstanding feature films of the last ten years stars
Richard Harris, Rachel Roberts with Alan Badel, William Hartnell

An ambitious Rugby League player's attempts to win the trust and affection of a conventional young widow are marred by his inability to combine tenderness with masculinity.
Writer David Storey, director Lindsay Anderson, producer Karel Reisz, and actors Rachel Roberts and Richard Harris are in perfect harmony in this brilliant tale of an impossible love affair set in a northern industrial town. This Sporting Life remains one of the best films to emerge from the British New Wave.
Screenplay by David Storey from his novel
(Richard Harris can also be seen in Line-Up tonight at 11.35 on BBC2)
