    It happens in almost everyone's life. There is a special day - a day of unusual significance. A turning point in life, perhaps in career, romance or fortune; a day to remember. This anthology of plays, each as individual as the people and events portrayed, looks at seven such Red Letter Days. Ranging from the poignant to the surreal, all of the plays are infused with a wry and tender humour. Featuring performances by some of British television's most accomplished actors - including Alison Steadman, Jack Shepherd, Peter Barkworth and Ronald Radd - the series' outstanding screenplays include Jack Rosenthal's BAFTA-nominated Ready When You Are, Mr. McGill, alongside similar bittersweet offerings from notable writers Willis Hall and Donald Churchill.

    Theatrical sparks flew when veteran ONeill interpreters Jason Robards, Jr. and Colleen Dewhurst joined forces in the celebrated 1973 revival of Eugene ONeills tender semi-autobiographical drama. Under the inspired direction of Jose Quintero, they helped transform the neglected 1947 work into a now-recognized modern masterpiece. In a towering performance, the late, great Jason Robards portrays a cynical, self-hating alcoholic actor based on ONeills elder brother, Jamie. The majestic Colleen Dewhurst plays the earthy, gruff daughter of his scheming Irish tenant farmer (Ed Flanders) with whom the failed actor spends a soul-baring night of guilt-ridden confessions, tenderness, and absolution. Both Dewhurst and Flanders won Tony Awards for their performances.
