Talking Heads
Alan Bennett’s critically acclaimed and multi-award-winning Talking Heads monologues first aired on BBC Television in 1988 and 1998.
“In such difficult circumstances, that the BBC should choose to remount both series of Talking Heads, and produce two entirely new ones, is a comfort and a huge compliment. I hope a new generation of actors will get and give as much pleasure as we did twenty and thirty years ago.” Alan Bennett
Ten of the original pieces were re-made, along with two new ones written by Alan Bennett. The films were produced by Nicholas Hytner for London Theatre Company and Kevin Loader.
