On BBC-2 at 10.15 When We Are Married
The well-worn phrase 'agonising reappraisal' perhaps best describes the psychological process of the characters in tonight's play. In this J.B. Priestley comedy, three married couples, who have gathered to celebrate communally their silver weddings, suddenly find that they were not actually married twenty-five years before. This news leads to an evening of shattering readjustment for the Helliwells, the Parkers, and the Soppitts. A strong cast, including Gwendolyn Watts and George A. Cooper, has been assembled.
