The Price (Channel 4, 1985)
"It was four o'clock one morning. There was a hammering at the door. The troops were thundering upstairs, shouting for William Crossan. My mother held on to my father, they threw her off him. Against the stairs. He'd done nothing. We weren't a Provo family, this wasn't the Bog. Or the Creggan. I was twelve. She caught me throwing stones at the Brits, she belted me! He had bronchitis, ah, he wasn't a well man. They ran him across the road in his bare feet, over broken glass. He was spread-eagled against a wall. The crucifix round his neck was torn off. 'You have a fuckin' cheek to wear that, Paddy'. And when he collapsed, they batoned him in the stomach or the balls. And when he could no longer get up... they stamped on his fingers. Broke two of them. When he was released - there were no charges - that night, it was the week before Bloody Sunday... I was allowed out to throw stones."

Fingersmith (1-2 BBC), Peter Ransley/ Aisling Walsh, 2005, GB
Adaptación de la misma novela de Sarah Waters en la que se basa The Handmaiden; ambas, al parecer, muy fieles. Tocando elementos como la identidad, la sexualidad, el fingimiento o la clase, un gaslight mystery mezclado con diversos elementos de melodrama folletinesco revisado: historia llena de giros y alambicada al máximo, síntesis de romanticismo, cinismo, sordidez y crítica. Rodada con sencillez, posee sentido de la observación y una intrigante tensión entre lo que sabemos de los personajes y su impenetrable construcción superficial. El primer capítulo es excelente, el segundo, debido a la necesidad estructural de repetir parte de la historia desde otro punto de vista se hace algo redundante en su primer cuarto y algo atropellado (y hasta confuso) en el desvelamiento de los diversos giros yuxtapuesto. El final es bellísimo, la interpretación uniformemente excelente, aunque incluso en tal escenario Imelda Staunton sobresale.

Enduring legacy of BBC’s Play for Today | Letters
Deborah Orr laments the loss of Play for Today (Opinion, 14 January). The effect that it had in exploring social issues is illustrated by the charity Action against Medical Accidents, which celebrates its 35th anniversary this year. My Play for Today, Minor Complications (which was directed by Moira Armstrong), exposed the way medical negligence was covered up in the health service. It was based on a real story of a woman fighting her own case. The response was so great my wife and I set up the charity to help people with claims: an uphill task because the opinion of medical experts was essential and (with honourable exceptions) the profession closed ranks. It is now more open and legal awareness much greater thanks to AvMA. Hospital trusts paid out just over £1bn in medical negligence claims in 2013-14, compared to £287m in 2003-4. According to AvMA’s chief executive Peter Walsh, roughly 66% of this goes to the patient in damages. The legal costs could be dramatically reduced if there were proper investigations and early settlements rather than a defend and deny culture. This is, perhaps, yet another indication of the increasing pressure the health service is under. Peter Ransley London • Deborah Orr, remembering Play for Today, writes that there were no women writers. It is true there weren’t many, but I worked on a Wednesday play, Toddler On The Run, written by Sheena Mackay and directed by James Mactaggart. I also remember working on a Theatre 625 written by Julia Jones. It was called Tickle Times and was the second play of a planned trilogy. (The first play had been wiped and the only copy was an Enterprises 16mm film version. The third play never appeared.) I expect there were others.
