Tumbledown 31 May 1988
Tumbledown was shown for the first time on 31 May 1988. The play, by Charles Wood, was based on the experiences of Lt. Robert Lawrence, recounted in the book When the Fighting is Over. It was one of several dramatic responses to the Falklands War of 1982 and examined the wider issue of the effect of combat on the participants. The play attracted 10 million viewers, helped in part by the controversy it generated, as its perceived bias was questioned in parliament.
