Notes
In the Radio Times listings for this broadcast Robert Speaight is unspecifically credited as playing ‘Faulconbridge’. Since Dermot Cathie speaks the part of Robert Faulconbridge and Robert Faulconbridge the elder (his father) is dead at the beginning of the play, we have assumed that Robert Speaight speaks the role of Philip the Bastard, half-brother to Sir Robert Faulconbridge.
