Notes: -
Synopsis: Two men, the hyper-tense Graham and the stolidly simian Ray, conduct a pointless but aggressive conversation before cruising a few pubs and viciously atacking an actor. The violence -. apparently based on a stalker's assault on Patrick McNee - Is shockingly random. A sinister sexual ambivalence pervades the piece: Graham and Ray's preoccupation with "queer" bars, and Graham's disgusted descriptions of Ray's girl, suggest they protest their heterosexuality too much.
