About this event
TV adaptation of the play set in a Cambridge School of English for Foreigners in 1962. St John Quartermaine is a rather ineffective but kindly teacher at the school who, becuase of his gentle character, has hardly any enemies - in fact, the rest of the staff confide in him or generally pplay on his good nature. Then Derek Meadle arrives on the scene. He is a new part-time teacher who really wants to be full-time, but people like Quartermaine are in the way.

Through staffroom conversations and passing years, the lonely, quietly devoted St John Quartermaine watches colleagues marry, separate, and pursue ambitions, while his own life stands poignantly still. Wry, humane, and deeply moving, it is a subtle study of time, disappointment, and endurance. GRAY
