Judging from past experience, getting hold of a viewing copy of the film will be difficult. We’ll definitely pass on your thoughts Chris, and thanks for the kind words.

I came across this site on a search for the work of art that is his 'Last Will And Testament Of Billy Two Sheds', one of my family's all time favourite pieces of television. Such a wonderfully poignant and gently perceptive production (much like Plater himself) and obviously a labour of love for all concerned. I've been desperately searching for a copy of this to no avail, but I am so thrilled to see that you recently screened it, and with the producers present! I would have loved to have been there, but I live miles away in Brighton. At the time of its second airing as 'The Afternoon Play' I wrote to the BBC about Billy Two Sheds and they said they'd pass on my letter to the producers. I hope they did. I also would've liked to have written to Mr Plater one day to let him know just what Billy Two Sheds meant to myself and my family. I would be MORE than thrilled if you could help me locate a copy of it. Do please let me know, it would mean a lot. Also, would there be any way my comments could be passed on to the producers? Your organisation looks great by the way. Keep up the good work. Cheers. Chris I’m so sad to hear of the passing of Alan Plater, the world needs more people like him not less.
