'I hope to God this does cause a stir.' (Lynda la Plante, writer of television series 'Civvies') (Interview)

Article Abstract:

Lynda la Plante, 46, used to be an actress before she decided to write for television in 1984 and had a big success with 'Widows' on ITV. For eight years none of her work was accepted because producers wanted more of the same, but Lynda had researched and written about the drugs squad, ex-soldiers and the police force. She achieved success again in 1991 with 'Prime Suspect.' In Sep 1992 a new series, 'Civvies,' tells the violent story of soldiers who have just left the Paras and find it difficult to adjust.

The director exits. Will it spoil the picture?

Article Abstract:

The National Film and Television School is facing financial difficulties and the enforced retirement of its founder and director, Colin Young. The school has an excellent reputation but the government insists that it should be mainly privately funded. With the Eavy Levy abolished, major cinema owners have provided funds, and until recently, the ITV franchises, but there is still a shortfall. Young, forced to retire at 65, hopes to set up a European film studio with the school's chairman, David Puttnam.
