SPEECH DAY
Back in 1973 the BBC produced the following programme. I tried in vain a couple of years ago to find more info. on this play & get hold of a copy. It was made at the now defunct Ashleigh School, Sheffield. Many of the parts were played by pupils and you'll see it starred Liz Dawn and the late Brian Glover.
I contacted the BFI who & IA Commercal Unit at the BBC (who promised to respond but didn't) two or three years ago to no avail. If anyone has or knows how to get hold of a copy then I'd appreciate it.
Thanks very much.
Here's the info
