BBC WS - Alan Bennet's 'An Englishman Abroad'
Technical presentation by Chris Lewis
Production assistant - Joanne Hopper
Adapted and directed by Hillary Norrish
Broadcast 1994
Coded from tape at 128/44.1

At dinner one night in London actress Coral Browne told
Alan Bennet an odd story about some meetings she had
with traitor Guy Burgess in Moscow in the 1950s ...

BBC blurb
When a mysterious Englishman appears in her dressing-room,
actress Coral Browne first assumes he is with the embassy. But,
if so, why are his trousers out at the knees? And what does he
want with her face-powder?
Blurb off

Essentially, this is a play about Englishness. It's also Gambon
at his finest ... and Bennet too, come to that.

Also included is a short file of Alan Bennet's 'Reflections On An
Englishman Abroad.'
