This week: The Rt. Hon. Iain Macleod, M.P.
by Bernard Kops.
Starring Bob Monkhouse
with Cyril Shaps, Rose Hill, Lila Kaye, Max Bacon
For thousands of years men have been obsessed by the dream of flight. The coming of the aeroplane, jet-power, even the giant rockets, have only partially satisfied that dream. There are still men who want to fly with their own wings, and under their own power - and some of them at least look as though they will soon achieve it.
Wings for a Man is about the men and the machines who are at last turning the dream of man-powered flight into reality.
A new thriller in six parts by Ken Hughes.
Starring Charles Tingwell, Veronica Strong
A duel of words and wit between Robert Morley with Celia Johnson, Max Adrian and Frank Muir with Marjorie Proops, Alan Simpson.
