Lear, arguably Shakespeare's greatest tragedy, has attracted all the major actors from Burbage and Betterton to Gielgud and Scofield; and each has brought his own individual stamp to this most difficult of roles. As a prelude to the re-broadcast of Sir Donald Wolflt 's historic performance next Thursday, 26 October, this programme examines the history of the play in the English theatre.

Lecturer in Law at King's College, London, in the first of two programmes, examines our treatment of defective new-born babies. n is argued that for some children, the mental and physical defects are so severe it is better for all concerned that they die.
