He undertook his own production of Hamlet to escape for a turn the shackles of the strictly commercial theatre. To support him he imported some middling Britons, including pretty Pamela Stanley as Ophelia, who would not dim the Howard brilliance. Unfortunately, this time there was no brilliance...

Last week Frank Furlong, married to Pamela Kingsmill and fatter than a year ago, was too heavy to ride his father's horse but Reynoldstown was in the race again, patently unaware of the hazards that tradition placed against his winning.
