every now and then on British TV we still get the occasional perfect drama that reminds you how good writing and acting can click together so well. 'Conspiracy' was a classic example and watching Stan tonight has confirmed it. In fact, I only saw the last 20 minutes, from the scene in Hal Roache's office, but I knew instantly that I was watching something special. That economical dialogue in just one scene told me so much about the two main characters. The final scene was laughter and tears and a true analysis of a brotherly-friendship that can last a lifetime, literally to death. I'm going to wait up till 2am in the morning to watch the whole production. Only thing I don't understand - why isn't the actor who played 'young Stan' mentioned in the credits?
