Alan Rickman & Emma Thompson (both in Sense & Sensibility) collaborate in this 50 minute drama for BBC2.
The Song of Lunch is a dramatisation of Christopher Reid's narrative poem, telling the story of a book editor who, 15 years after their break-up, meets his former love for a nostalgic lunch at the Soho restaurant they used to frequent. As the wine flows, the couple rake over their failed relationship.
Here's part 1 of 4, the rest can be found here

Thanks for reminding me. I need to check when it's re-run so I can record it. Have a friend in Sweden who is a massive Alan Rickman fan. :)
ReplyDelete*Gasp!* I love, love, love Alan Rickman! It doesn't hurt that everytime he and the incredible Emma Thompson work together, magic happens. *^_^* Thanks for sharing! Your blog is my absolute go-to for all things period and British cinema.
