TEETHING PROBLEMS ONE

SIGNS

Seventy-six-year-old Madeleine McGlyn is confined to a secure institution under the Mental Health Act. She’s been there for over 35 years, but listen carefully to her story. Why does Dr Bailey figure so strongly in her life? How does an innocent kiss from a Sleeping Beauty lead to such trauma? The Signs were already there in the beginning… This is an adaptation of Michael Mau’s original script from Season 2 of A Blind Play of Social Forces. “I love this version. I could feel the benign menace in her voice. The nostalgia for a life she never had. Bravo.” Michael Mau

THE MENU NEW

Scott and Val have come to a posh restaurant for a “special” occasion – but their anniversary dinner does not go to plan. While Scott’s attempt to pop the question is initially foiled by an old flame, Val’s many previous relationships provoke more questions than there are items on the menu! (This was the first collaboration written jointly by Peter Franksson and Alan Veale.)

THE QUIET ONE

An elderly woman wants to get rid of her husband. Why won’t the man at the Citizen’s Advice Bureau help her out? And why on earth won’t Bernie eat his bacon butty?

WHO CARES?

Julie has had a gruelling day at the care home where she works. She just wants a glass of wine and a cuddle – not necessarily in that order. She has a colourful story to tell, but why won’t David come out of the kitchen and help Julie unwind?

TEETHING PROBLEMS ONE

“I don’t like dead bodies…” An emergency extraction proves to be an insurmountable challenge for John and Alice, especially when the patient dies during the procedure, leaving a false name and a bag full of cash.
