On the afternoon of Saturday 10th December 2022 (it starts at 2.20pm), as part of their salute to the BBC Centenary, the British Film Institute presents a rare screening of ‘The Precious Things’, a sensual period drama starring Jeremy Brett, Geoffrey Bayldon and Jacqueline Pearce. This BFI Archive version is remastered from an original telerecording from 1967. They have remastered sound and visual elements from an original 35mm telerecording of this outstanding play from the Theatre 625 series of prestigious dramas. This was the second and only surviving part of The Magicians, a trio of unconnected plays about magic and magicians, written by Don Taylor. In this sensual period drama, con man and cod-magician Casanova hatches an elaborate plan to seduce a farmer’s daughter. Jeremy Brett turns in a characteristically rich and eccentric performance as the mesmerising seducer, with Jacqueline Pearce equally commanding as the object of his desire. Director: Herbert Wise, BBC 1967, 91 mins. Travisina and I will be there, along with 2 fellow Horizon-ites. The screening is over half full so if you'd like to join us hurry and book. I'd never even heard of this particular show, let alone seen it so am really excited to have this chance to watch Jacks on a big BFI screen. https://www.bfi.org.uk/bfi-southbank "Some days are better than others, Section Leader"

Enjoy it for me, you lucky beasts! So sorry you can't make it. £150??? Wow, that's insane. Where's the teleport when you need it...? "Some days are better than others, Section Leader"
