fame and fortune

6x60'

 

Frederic Raphael’s 6 part sequel to his classic ‘The Glittering Prizes’, written especially for Radio 4. Following the original characters 20 years on, we discover if the glitter has tarnished, if they have fulfilled their promise or sold out. Fame and Fortune chronicles English social life and public and private values in the last quarter of the brutal 20th century.
