Dirk Bogarde, Lee Remick and EiIeen Atkins head an outstanding cast in this stunning drama from the creative team behind ShadowIands. OriginalIy screened as part of BBC2's accIaimed Screen Two strand and featuring an early TV roIe for HeIena Bonham Carter, The Vision is a disturbing reflection of an era of televangelists, burgeoning sateIlite channeIs and ruthless media manipulation.
Bogarde plays James Marriner, a faded, unhappily married former TV presenter who is persuaded to front the People Channel a right-wing, evangelical satelIite network poised to launch in Europe; determined to recruit "Gentle Jim" as a reassuringIy familiar anchorman, the network's steeIy, seductive boss Grace Gardner (Remick) proves hard to refuse.
As the network's first Iive transmission Iooms, Marriner, whose personaI Iife is now under surveilIance, has become deepIy uneasy about its aims. But Gardner makes it clear that any attempt to alert viewers to her organisation's true agenda wilI bring about a devastating retribution. |
