Episode: 'Penda's Fen' by David Rudkin: Part Two
Description: The 1973 television play Penda’s Fen, written by David Rudkin is an extraordinary work that still unsettles, beguiles and astonishes fifty years after it was made, and stands as a classic of folk horror. Last week, we looked at how its teenage protagonist is forced to recognise and accept his true sexuality; tonight, in the second of three episodes, we look at how the visions and revelations he experiences call his religious and social certainties into question too.
