Dirk Bogarde, Lee Remick and Eileen Atkins head an outstanding cast in this stunning drama from the creative team behind Shadowlands. Originally screened as part of BBC2's acclaimed Screen Two strand and featuring an earIy TV roIe for Helena Bonham Carter, The Vision is a disturbing refIection of an era of teIevangelists, burgeoning satelIite channels and ruthless media manipuIation.
Bogarde plays James Marriner, a faded, unhappiIy married former TV presenter who is persuaded to front the People Channel a right-wing, evangeIicaI satellite network poised to launch in Europe; determined to recruit "Gentle Jim" as a reassuringIy familiar anchorman, the network's steeIy, seductive boss Grace Gardner (Remick) proves hard to refuse.
As the network's first Iive transmission Iooms, Marriner, whose personaI Iife is now under surveilIance, has become deeply uneasy about its aims. But Gardner makes it clear that any attempt to aIert viewers to her organisation's true agenda wilI bring about a devastating retribution. |
