One spring morning, a quiet, shy man in his sixties sets out
from Land's End to walk the length of his native land. He has never
walked more than a dozen miles in his life before, his health is
uncertain, his boots are new, and he is too diffident to talk to
anyone he meets along the way.
His slow, solitary progress up the spine of Britain is watched
by an unseen audience--his family and friends at home. How far will
he get before he is forced to give up? Is he being heroic or merely
selfish?
As the days of his absence go by, the old alliances and quarrels
inside the family shift and alter. What emerges is a story about
the arbitrariness of human endeavor, the tenacious complexity of
human relationships, one man's glimpse of the country he lives in,
courage, and love.
"One of theatre's subtlest, most sophisticated minds."--"The
Times"
"First and Last" was directed by Alan Dossor in a production
for BBC television with Joss Ackland as the walker.
