I was thinking about this not so long ago and looked online for a DVD, without success. Never thought to look on YouTube.

I wrote my drama paper in my Higher English on The Cheviot, the Stag and the Black, Black Oil, having seen it twice on TV.
In reply to Douglas Griffin:

Oh wow I always remember that as one of my favorite Play for Todays.

Play for today was amazing you would never get it on the TV these days with the lets stick to the tried and trusted formula approach.

Will take a look tonight
