Ten years ago, Spike (‘Henry Goodman’), abandoned Amy (‘Harriet, Walter’) and ran off to Paris with his mistress. Amy never quite recovered from the shock and has spent all that time in therapy trying to come to terms with Spike’s betrayal. Amy thinks she has recovered when her lover falls in love with and moves in with her own daughter and she finds herself back at square one, alone and miserable, with only the young, beautiful, popular, cynical Tanya (Jaye Griffiths) to comfort her. Completely out of the blue Amy and Spike literally crash into one another again in a car wash. Is there still a spark left burning between them or will past hurt and pain prevent them from reuniting?

This anthology brings together the four films written by David Leland and screened originally in 1983 – the films are: BIRTH OF A NATION, FLYING INTO THE WIND, R.H.I.N.O. and MADE IN BRITAIN.Featuring early roles for Tim Roth and Jim Broadbent, the films form a scathing portrait of British society in the early 1980s, focusing in particular on the polarisation of attitudes towards the role and methods of education in an increasingly fragmented society. Without overtly offering solutions, Leland s films depict – often with unnerving acuity and foresight – the experience of individuals within systems that have become inadequate in dealing with the fallout of social breakdown. Of the four films presented here, Made in Britain, directed by the celebrated Alan Clarke, inevitably aroused the strongest controversy, with Tim Roth s astonishing portrayal of a nihilistic, racist teenage skinhead captured by Chris Menges innovative cinematography. Contentious, truthful and oftentimes harrowing, this hard-hitting quartet of films won both the Prix Italia and Prix Futura, fully justifying its controversial stance and determination to break new ground in television drama.
