Murrain in The TV Times

 Nigel Kneale's episode of the series Against The Crowd was covered in the ITV listings magazine for the week of broadcast on 27th July, 1975. 


The listing for the episode gave a vague synopsis. This was also accompanied by a box out which had star Bernard Lee interviewed and revealing a fairly bland anecdote about the filming of the episode. "Playing a pig farmer put Bernard Lee off pork - but only temporarily."


The magazine also featured an interview with Kneale, The Funny Side of Being Scared Stiff, written by Alix Coleman for the regular Inside TV column. I'm particularly fond of the photograph of Kneale with two of his pet cats...
