R634 Discovery Miles 6 340 Ships in 15 - 30 working days

Collection of TV dramas by the acclaimed British film maker Ken Loach. 'The Big Flame' (1967) and 'Rank and File' (1971) are trademark Loach dramas, detailing with sympathy the plight of workers caught up in industrial disputes at the Liverpool docks and the Pilkington glassworks, respectively. 'Three Clear Sundays' (1965) tells the story of Danny (Tony Selby), a young man facing up to the death penalty after an attempt to help reduce the sentence of two other prison inmates goes badly wrong. 'Days of Hope' (1975) is an epic four-part series starring Paul Copley, Pamela Brighton and Nikolas Simmonds as members of a working class family whose fortunes are depicted from the end of WWI to what they perceive as their betrayal in the General Strike of 1926. 'The End of Arthur's Marriage' (1965) offers something of a departure from Loach's conventional films, an adaptation of a musical scripted by Christopher Logue. 'In Two Minds' (1967) stars Anna Cropper and examines the plight of those suffering from schizophrenia. 'Up the Junction' (1965) raised the issue of abortion, at the time illegal, and played a major role in shaping public debate on the issue. Its influence in this regard was possibly only surpassed by Loach's most famous TV drama 'Cathy Come Home' (1966), which follows the struggles of young bride Cathy (Carol White) as she struggles to keep a roof over herself and her children in a housing system that seems constantly to be working against her. 'The Price of Coal' (1977) is a two-part drama set in a Yorkshire mining village which contrasts the humour of the working men (many played by actual comedians, including Duggie Brown) with the dangerous conditions in which they are forced to earn a living.

Written by Alan Bleasdale, this BAFTA-winning series provoked intense political controversy on its broadcast in 1986 and, after an initial repeat has not been shown since on British television.

Private Toplis was already a chancer and a rebel, thanks to his tough childhood, when he arrived at the Etaples training camp in northern France in June 1917. But it was there, on the eve of the Battle of Passchendaele, as the soldiers were put through a brutal training regime, that Toplis instigated a mutiny which would shake the British authorities to the core.

Now a marked man, relying on his talent for impersonating the officer class, Toplis escapes to England where he falls in love with a young widow, but as the most wanted man in Britain, his struggle for freedom becomes increasingly desperate...
