Description
Release Date: 19 May 2008
Malcolm Bradury's BAFTA and International Emmy Award-winning TV adaptation of Tom Sharp'e best-selling novel Porterhouse Blue.
Set at Cambridge University, Porterhouse Blue centres around fictional Porterhouse College, whose genially eccentric fellows are the proud guardians of six centuries of tradition in which oar-pulling prowess and gourmet cuisine have taken priority over academic achievement.
Drama ensues when reform-minded Sir Evans (Ian Richardson) is appointed headmaster. Determined to modernise this old-fashioned institution, Evans finds himself at odds with its recalcitrant staff, chief among them the devious Skullion (David Jason). It's a battle of wills, and no one is spared as this dark comedy lampoons privileged pupils, professors, and politicians alike.
