Series Summary
For many years, The National Theatre of Brent has been making its own very distinctive contribution to the theatrical and indeed the cultural life of the nation. This under the inspired leadership of that towering figure Desmond Olivier Dingle with the well-meaning assistance of his protégé Raymond Box.
Now they have triumphantly broken free of the limitations of the stage and brought their work to the widest canvas of all. They've produced this awe-inspiring series embracing everything from the last breath of Queen Victoria in 1901 to the final gasp of the Monica Lewinsky Affair in 1999.
