Season 5

Episodes

Wide-Eyed and Legless
The marriage of Deric and Diana Longden is a successful one, based on a shared sense of humour as well as love. It seems sure to survive even when Diana is struck down by a mysterious debilitating and, as it transpires, progressive illness. When Deric meets novelist Aileen Armitage matters become complicated, but not in predictable fashion.

A Foreign Field
Cyril takes Amos to France to visit the grave of their wartime buddy Briggsy. While in Normandy they encounter Waldo, an American D-day veteran. Cyril and Waldo are determined to find their old girlfriend from 50 years before. Also in their party is the mysterious Lisa, whose secret is revealed only at the end of their journey.

Down Among the Big Boys
Comedian Billy Connolly returns to Glasgow to star in a film written by Peter McDougall, a fellow worker in the Clydeside shipyards of his youth and screenwriter of The Long Good Friday. Connolly plays Jojo, a big-time operator in Glasgow's criminal underworld, who masterminds a daring bank robbery. But his steps are dogged by a smart young police officer who also happens to be his son-in-law.

Royal Celebration
Drama about a street party held to mark the 1981 royal wedding. The spirit of rejoicing fires already-high emotions, and passions spill over changing lives forever.

Tender Loving Care
Night nurse Elaine Dobbs may be overworked and underpaid, but she has created a very special atmosphere in her ward and is extremely attentive to her patients. However, rather too many of them are dying.

Money for Nothing
The comic offering for tonight's Screen One film is a transatlantic jaunt involving a schoolboy who bets his friend he'll be worth a million before the week is out.

Wall of Silence
A corpse is fished out of a north London canal with stab wounds through the eyes. A gruesome opening: but the victim was a prominent member of the Hasidic Jewish community, and the cause of death one reserved by the Hasidim to punish "moysers", or informers.
This tale of ritual murder and the refusal of the tight-knit Hasidic community to co-operate with the police has already caused controversy.

The Bullion Boys
In May 1940, just before Dunkirk, the governors of the Bank of England decided that the nation's bullion would be safer in the vaults of Martin's
Bank in Liverpool. How easy It would have been for the gang of dockers who unloaded the cargo at Liverpool to "sample" the wares....

Revival
Revival is set on one miraculous day in rural Wisconsin when the recently deceased suddenly rise from their graves. But this is no zombie story as the "revived" appear and act just like they once were.

Good Omens
According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.

Except Aziraphale, a somewhat fussy angel, and Crowley, a fast-living demon--both of whom have lived among Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle--are not actually looking forward to the coming war.
And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist...
