Back in 1994, the BBC screened a drama called Fair Game. It was the story of a young couple’s trip across northern England against the backdrop of 1970’s football world cup and British general election.

It was broadcast on the eve of 1994’s world cup. I recorded it on my video and enjoyed it several times before making the mistake of lending the tape to a colleague. She taped over it!

I’d love to see Fair Game again. It included a wonderful performance by Prunella Scales and an evocative soundtrack of 1970 music. Please, BBC, show it again!
