...Playhouse 90. An unfuturistic drama of the future about a conflict within the Roman Catholic church, "Catholics" stars Trevor Howard and Martin Sheen. Adapted from the Brian Moore novel. CH.7. 9 p.m. Color...
Mark, who is both handsome and amiable, could conceivably add some sheen to her image, and the two of them could further cement the royal family's relations with the "county" set-the rich, landed gentry of tweeds, hounds and horses.

Jack Albertson won a Tony award for his role as the father who shares a new rapport with his returned son, played by Martin Sheen.
