Gwen: a Juliet Remembered with Dame Peggy Ashcroft Alan Bates , Dirk Bogarde Sir John Gielgud Sir Peter Hall
Nigel Hawthorne
Dame Wendy Hiller
Anna Massey , Alec McCowen Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies , in Sir Peter Hall 's words, is a whole chapter of the British Performing arts. Next year she will be 98. Gwen has been much admired for her recent masterclasses at the National Theatre and the RSC on her favourite Shakespearian role, Juliet. She first played the part in 1924 with Sir John Gielgud as Romeo and, reputedly, she hasn't read the play since.
Omnibus features Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies in a specially staged masterclass for drama students at the Aldwych Theatre, and Nigel Hawthorne talks to her about her life and her great theatrical roles.

A SAFFRON production for BBCtv
Starring Steve McQueen
Boon Hogganbeck is a romantic. A man who cannot resist a pretty woman, a shiny automobile or a horse that might win a race. So when his boss takes delivery of a gleaming yellow Winton Flyer the temptation is too great. In no time at all, Boon is bowling down the road to Memphis, together with Ned the stableman and young Lucius.
This screen version of William Faulkner's novel, set at the turn of the century provided a colourful role for Steve McQueen as the swashbuckling hero of a series of misadventures.
