Four classic cases of Court Martial
1: Black Bottles and Cherry-Buns written by DONALD THOMAS with William Squire as the Earl of Cardigan
Brighton, 1840, and the notorious 'black bottle' sensation when a young officer dared to drink his Moselle from a bottle instead of a decanter at a regimental dinner. The court martial which followed, forced through by the arrogant 7th Earl, and the ensuing scandal made Cardigan the most hated man in England until the Charge of the Light Brigade.
With the voices of: JOHN RYE, MICHAEL DEACON, NICOLETTE MCKENZIE, WILLIAM EEDLE, GEOFFREY BEEVERS, DOUGLAS BLACKWELL, SEAN BARRETT, NIGEL GRAHAM and IRENE SUTCLIFFE
Produced and directed by MAURICE LEITCH

Noele's Story
Noele Arden went into her first institution at the age of two and a half and left, the last - Rampton Special Hospital - when she was 24.
Behind one locked door after another she grew from a bewildered, restless child into a sullen, aggressive woman, fighting to preserve her personality from the straitjacket of boredom and brutality she encountered on the way. She never discovered why she was forced to spend her Mfe in institutions or why she was labelled mentally defective. But she did emerge - damaged but not destroyed - to marry, make a home and tell her story - and to offer her husband and children the love she never knew.
Presented by Roma Byer
