The story so far:
Magwitch, who has returned from life transportation, tells Pip he will be hanged if he is caught. 'If him I fought with on the marshes finds me out, he'll inform against me', he says, 'Compeyson's his name'. Herbert whispers to Pip that the scoundrel who broke Miss Havisham's heart was called Compeyson. Orlick discovers that Magwitch is at Barnard's Inn, but thanks to Wemmick, Herbert moves him to Limehouse. Pip, who will not take Magwitch's money, asks Miss Havisham to provide for Herbert, and Estella says abruptly that she is going to marry Bentley Drummle.

A new play for television by A.C. Thomas
[Starring] Richard Leech, Geoffrey Keen, Bernard Horsfall, Peter Hammond with Shirley Cain, Leslie French
(See top of page)
Set in a local government office - a county borough housing department between 1954 and 1957 - tonight's play is a study of the effect of ambition on character. Bob Mitchell and Philip Irwin are competing for promotion. Their immediate goal is the job of successor to the deputy director which falls vacant owing to illness. The director, Southwell, for reasons of his own, gives the job to the man who appears to be the less talented of the two, and thereby starts a considerable conflict.
This is the first television play by A.C. Thomas, who is himself a local government official and who has set his play against an authentic background of life behind the official facade.
