Miron Grindea 's
Adam Miron Grindea arrived in England from Romania in 1939. He spoke no English, had virtually no contacts, yet two years later he was editing one of the most remarkable literary magazines of the century. Tonight's Bookmark celebrates the 81-year-old Grindea's extraordinary achievement: his passion for the arts and his addiction to gossip are re-created with such Adam classics as Jean Cocteau on Edith Piaf ,
Churchill's mischevious account of Shaw and a keyhole glimpse of Proust from a waiter who was chosen to serve him at the Paris Ritz. Producer NADIA HAGGAR Editor NIGEL WILLIAMS

A season of classic performances of the work of Samuel Beckett.
Not I
Billie Whitelaw introduces her own performance from 1973 in which only her disembodied mouth is seen.
