Crayton on TV
Professor Crayton has been told to increase the profile of the college. Thus he has been chosen to go on television and talk about literature.
The rather blase Crayton is too fusty and fussy to be a television start. When the cameras roll, Professor Crayton dries up live on television.
Luckily he gains his composure to read some poetry and it goes down well with the audience. Even Mrs Green is impressed.
However there looks to be no return performance for Crayton. There are some letters of complaint, the author whose poem Crayton read out is in prison.
An appalled Mrs Green leads a letter writing campaign to have Professor Crayton reinstated on television.
It was interesting that cancel culture operated in the early 1960s. Heck it existed in the 1950s led by some senator called McCarthy.
Once again another episode that really is not funny.
