587 Saturday Night Thriller - Grass

First  viewed:  18  December  1982

It's  a  shame  there's  not  much  trace  of  this  tense  little  thriller  about  a  convict  ( Billy  Murray )  who  rats  on  his  mates  in  return  for  conjugal  visits  from  his  wife  Judy  Geeson. When  he  gets out, he's  a  marked  man. If  I  remember  rightly  he  survives  but  the  old  lag  who  tries  to  help  him  cops  it.

Apart  from  an  episode  of  Tales  of  the  Unexpected  six  months  later  , this  was  Geeson's  last  appearance  on  British  TV  before  she  permanently  relocated  to  America  ( though  she  did  return for  an  episode  of  Boon  in  1989 ).
