The Falklands Play
Overview: The Falklands Play is a dramatic account of the political events leading up to, and including, the 1982 Falklands War.

This prompted a press furore over media bias and censorship.The play was not staged until 2002, when it was broadcast in separate adaptations on BBC Television and Radio.
