Synopsis
Four-part television thriller by Nigel Williams which loosely retells the Hamlet story set in London’s Docklands at the time of its commercial development. Roland (Firth) lives with his mother Maria (Campbell) and his Uncle Claud (Shrapnel) who is directing an operatic version of Hamlet. Claud’s brother Nick (Head)) has been dead for many years but mysterious telephone calls suggest that Nick may not be dead at all.
