Thanks, Shiv. Well, you've got till the end of the day, so here's a clue:
Director: Piers Haggard, 23 October 1973
Part of the Armchair Theatre season
Author: same as writer of the series mentioned above
and, no, apparently imdb has failed to list this one 
Your clue was too good - I got the title of the episode 'Verite'. But I spent ages trying to find information about the storyline, cast etc. No luck... |

Yeah, if you can't find enough of my reviews to justify the 40 votes, please give the remainder to Alan Smithee instead.
Thanks!

Thanks, but again, please only look at my reviews that you haven't seen before, and it is no problem if you do not want to vote on any of them. |

I never vote on reviews that don't tickle at least a bit of my fancy, and I don't have a very sensitive fancy.
(Just a warped sense of humour!)

Consider that "lurve" liberally spread on Sal's lowest page (of those I hadn't already voted for, that is)!
I am more than happy with those votes (i.e. focused on my newest reviews), so B.B. does not need to look as well (although she may have already done so as I think some of them have gained two votes). You had both already visited my pages more than generously, so I wouldn't want you to try to vote on ones that hadn't tickled your fancy when you saw them then.
By the way, B.B., you've had an amazing and glamorous life - and you're even an author too!  |

It's nice on FWFR when everyone spreads the lurve 
Excellent idea. Consider that "lurve" liberally spread on Sal's lowest page (of those I hadn't already voted for, that is)!
