Philip Harben brings from Switzerland: La Fondue
This is the melted-cheese dish for which Switzerland is famous. It is more than a dish - it is a social event, and the manner of serving it is a special art.

A play by Patrick Hamilton.
[Starring] Alan Wheatley
The action takes place in the sitting-room of the London house of Brandon and Granillo, two Oxford undergraduates.

Alan Wheatley (right) as Rupert in a previous television production of Patrick Hamilton's essay in the macabre.
Two speeches from this grim and subtle little play are enough to give its flavour.
One character is confident: "I have committed murder. I have committed passionless - motiveless - faultless - and clueless murder. Bloodless and noiseless murder. An immaculate murder." Another character holds that there is no such thing as a motiveless murder: "It would have a quite clear motive. Vanity. It would be a murder of vanity. And because of that the criminal would be quite unable to keep from talking about it, or showing it off-in some fantastic way or another..."
Exactly in which way will be revealed...
At 8.35
