Season 5 Episode 13: Andrew Davies Remembers... A Very Peculiar Practice

Screenwriter Andrew Davies, best known for his adaptations of classic novels, reflects on one of his own original works - A Very Peculiar Practice - a wickedly funny comedy drama series set in a university health centre in the late 1980s. Inspired by his own experiences in formal education, the series drew heavily on the political landscape of the time and features some wonderfully funny turns from actors such as Peter Davison, Barbara Flynn and Graham Crowden. Davies discusses the show’s origins, its cult status and how its dark humour paved the way for his later work.
