The Winslow Boy by Terence Rattigan

A BC Radio 4 production of Terence Rattigan s famous play about an innocent boy unjustly accused

It is easy to do justice very hard to do right.

When he is accused of stealing a five-shilling postal order, fourteen-year-old Ronnie Winslow is expelled from naval college. But his father believes his claim of innocence and, determined to clear his name, engages the most famous barrister in England to fight his case. It is up to Sir Robert Morton to take on the establishment in order to let right be done.

Adapted as a famous British film starring Robert Donat, The Winslow Boy is a moving story about fairness and fighting for a principle. This gripping BC radio adaptation from 1981 features a distinguished cast, including Michael Aldridge, Pauline Letts, Sarah Badel, and Michael Maloney.

TERENCE RATTIGAN was one of the most popular English 20th-century dramatists. His first play, First Episode, was produced in 1934 and his first big hit French Without Tears in 1936. His best known later works include After the Dance, Flare Path, The Browning Version, The Winslow Boy and The Deep Blue Sea. Many of his plays have been adapted for film, and are frequently revived.
