Brilliant Omnibus episode about the blind English poet John Milton
I remember watching this Omnibus episode late on a Sunday night in London, England over 50 years ago. John Neville's portrayal of Milton was so vivid and memorable that I only have to shut my eyes and I can see him on the small B/W TV screen in my mind. The screenplay dealt with Milton's relationship with his wife and daughter. There was a climactic scene towards the end where he scolds his daughter and, if memory serves, banishes her from his presence if not his life.
The episode did cross the Atlantic and was broadcast on PBS TV in the mid-1970s. It was not released on a DVD. I know it is available at a couple of university libraries in the US on a video cassette. But they cannot be accessed by the general public. Too bad. I'd love to see Paradise Restored again.
