    Gutted that some of the great Alan Bennett TV films are not being shown this week eg Doris and Doreen and Me , Im Afraid of Virginia Wolf. Anyone have these?

    What's the one with Dave Allen having a nervous breakdown - haven't seen that in twenty odd years...

    Those were all made by London Weekend TV - therefore not part of the BBC season.

    BBC 4 have shown ITV material before now (The Naked Civil Servant, for example, IIRC) - but admittedly it would be more expensive for them.



    It's a pity ITV's excellent back catalogue doesn't have a similar venue for occassional airing.

    Yes indeed, ITV3 and ITV4 need to widen their range...
