In 1883, the time traveling alien known as the Doctor (Doctor 7) and his companion Ace travelled to Earth to investigate the creepy manor known as Gabriel Chase. Among the manor’s secrets appeared to be a strange creature and a stone spaceship. To make matters worse, the Doctor learned that Queen Victoria’s life might be at stake. ("Ghost Light", Doctor Who, TV)

Screen Two: East of Ipswich (BBC, 1987)
"You'll be leaving us very shortly, and before boys go out into the difficult and dangerous world of senior schools, I give them what is called a 'sex talk'. I expect you've already heard boys talking about sex, have you?"
"Having babies, sir?"
"Yes. Reproduction. Good, good."
"I sort of know a bit. We've got a dog."
"Good. Good."
#screen two#east of ipswich#michael palin#single play#bbc#1987#tristram powell#john nettleton#pat heywood#edward rawle hicks#allan cuthbertson#rosemary macvie#oona kirsch#pippa hinchley#joan sanderson#graham crowden#janine duvitski#timothy bateson#john wagland#roger brierley#a gently comic‚ slight but enjoyable bit of coming of age drama from Palin (coming directly between his years as a comic performer and#actor‚ and his reinvention as the king of the travelogue at the end of the decade). fairly autobiographical in nature‚ Palin was inspired#by his own family holidays as a teenager on the English coast; in particular‚ the play apparently closely mirrors his own meeting with his#future wife Helen (who sadly passed last month). i couldn't tell you which of the girls in the story represents her however‚ nor am i#convinced Palin didn't play with the narrative to subvert expectations (the girl with whom he seems ideally suited is not the one with whom#he is finally united). a very gentle‚ subtle humour pervades: allusions to Mr Burrill's gastric issues‚ the desperate snobbishness of the#assembled guests and the blockheadedness of Duvitski's maid character. it's a far cry from some of the other work Screen Two were putting#out at this point (eg Alan Clarke's seminal Contact or Simon Gray's acidic Quatermaine's Terms) but it's cosy and quite a comforting watch#the highlight for me is the all too brief appearance by Graham Crowden as the boy's hopelessly uncomfortable headmaster delivering#a horrific sermon on sex whilst repeatedly grasping at his knee in desperation or discomfort. it's a beautifully comic bit
