The television plays included are A Day Out, Sunset Across the Bay, A Visit from Miss Prothero, Me, I''m Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Green Forms, The Old Crowd and Afternoon Off. This volume contains a new general introduction by Alan Bennett, as well as the original preface by Lindsay Anderson to The Old Crowd.
