A Man for AllSeasons is a play by Robert Bolt showing the rise and fall of its main character, Sir Thomas More. Set in 16th century England, the play exposes many similarities between its era and ours. There are of course differences, with its strong theme of social hierarchy and the immense power harnessed by the reigning monarch, King Henry VIII. While there are still elements of these in Britain they are certainly far from apparent today.

Like I have said early each episode within this series truly is a fantastic piece of comedy in its own right and each ...
Advantages: Four great stories - excellent value Disadvantages: None
A natty title that ties in to the contents. The four (different) seasons each have a (different and infinitely spooky) story written, therefore this has four separate stories. See if you can spot which of the tales became a hollywood film...
"Hope Springs Eternal - Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption."
This is a tale about the lives of prison inmates inside Shawshank Prison, and focuses on one in particular. He is Andy Dufresne. Andy's time inside the pen is described by "Red", who acts as narrator, telling us about Andy, the type of guy he was, the crime he'd been found guilty of despite his consistent denials of involvement, and his love of Rita Hayworth. He loves Rita so much that he asks Red to smuggle a poster in for him, which Red duly obliges him with. But just how does the poster figure so importantly in the book? Guess ...
