with Jonathan Miller A television exploration of the world of Samuel Beckett. [Starring] Jack MacGowran Since Waiting for Godot burst on a startled and sometimes outraged English audience nearly ten years ago, Samuel Beckett has become a well-established figure in the English theatre. The latest production of Waiting for Godot at the Royal Court Theatre, London, has been received as a classic. This evening's programme is an experiment in expressing on television some of Mr. Beckett's central themes and ideas as they occur not only in his plays but in his novels.
