About this listen

Nigel Kneale was a pioneer of British drama on both the big and small screens creating characters such as Professor Bernard Quatermass and revered shows like The Stone Tape and Year of the Sex Olympics. My guest for the next three episodes, Pat Veil, is a huge fan of his 1976 anthology series Beasts which helped to cement his love of 1970s British TV. In this opening episode we review Murrain from the 1975 series Against The Crowd. This episode was so succesful it led to ATV commisioning the wiriter for hos own six part series.

Against The Crowd episode 3: Murrain. Written by Nigel Kneale. Directed by John Cooper. Starring David Simeon. Bernard Lee and Una Brandon-Jones.
