War Within a War
‘A NAZI ace fighter-pilot lands his aircraft,in England during the war and gives himself up. The British require vital information about the plane, and the play Where No Wounds Were opens during the pilot’s first interview with an interrogation officer. The British officer, in the course of doing his duty, becomes strangely interested in his prisoner, perhaps becausé he was himself brought up in Germany. Between him and the Nazi, who is a fanatic and a moral coward, there develops a strange duel of person-alities-a war within a war. Dramatised and produced by Louis MacNiece from the novel by Goronwy
Rees, Where No Wounds Were opens a door into a strange world-a world of conflicting events whose drama is heightened by the difficulty of telling good from evil in a civilisation of perverted ideals. In this BBC* production Marius Goring plays the part of Adam Lipansky, the fighter-pilot, with Mark Dignam as the interrogating officer. Others in the cast are Robert Eddison, Sarah Leigh, David Peel and John Sharp. Where No Wounds Were will be heard in the ZB Sunday Showcase programme at 9.35 p.m. on Sunday, November 21.
