A public thank you to Issy Flower for completing our Prisoner book with her Checkmate chapter. She explores how individual achievements in the 60s required collective efforts. She examines 'Main Character Syndrome' in a series battling to be different within ITC action-adventure.

Starve Acre was good, but had the general sense it would've been better cut down to an hour at most and put on BBC 2 in 1977
