Taken from the New Statesman archive, 28 May 1976. Potter wrote the New Statesman’s weekly television review on and off for two or three years in the 1970s, a time when he was already established as the country’s most controversial television playwright. 1976 was the year his Brimstone and Treacle was banned by the BBC (which did not broadcast it until 1987); Pennies from Heaven appeared in 1978. - Brian Cathcart
