SO WELL REMEMBERED
(Rank-R.K.O. Radio) This story of ‘the clash of classes reminded me more than a little of The Citadel, except that the accents this time were Lancashire, not Welsh, and the health problem wasn’t silicosis but diphtheria. So Well Remembered comes down strongly on the side of (continued on next page)

But neither the anti-immunization school nor the Tory party have as much cause for complaint as the B.M.A. Vested interest is represented by a woman of exclusive upbringing and vaulting ambition (Martha Scott) who sacrifices everything-husband, child, father-in her remorseless pursuit of money. The character, in fact, is too overdrawn to convince anyone. Trevor Howard, on the other hand, invests the part of a disreputable, dirty and drunken medical officer of health with sufficient humanity to make it a libel on the profession.
