BBC R4 - T S Eliot's 'The Elder Statesman'
Directed by Patrick Raynor

A daughter is released to lead her own life through helping
her father confront his demons.

Quite moving at times - that dry old stick still had it in him.


But it's a pity it didn't occur to him sooner - while his
original wife was still alive.
