Thirty-Minute Theatre - Series 4

Commander Dusting is used to commanding men and having his slightest wish obeyed. So it comes as a great shock when he suddenly finds himself redundant.

A young couple like to change their clothes and personalities to suit the people they've invited to dinner. But one night they forget who their guests are going to be.

Josef Djugashvili is not a suitable candidate for the priesthood. Revolutionary politics lead him to take the name Stalin.

A small group of middle class people are sitting around a table in a windowless room enjoying a dinner party as the TV in the corner reports on events in the Vietnam War. Their trivial chatter, one by one, bores people at the dinner party, who turn their attention to the TV and become encapsulated by the horror of the war and the dinner party continues despite, one by one, each diner being overwhelmed by war scenes and is next seen dead in their seat in the same way as a Vietnamese war victim; meanwhile the babble continues and the guest's demise passes unnoticed, until there is only one left.
