Masterful.
I remember the marvellous Wickes/Joly/Mason production in Big School c.71 with great affection.
The character played by Roger was? (Quiz question no.112!)

That must have been a couple of terms after I left. I remember the Reggie Watters production of Hamlet, with Martin Drury as the Prince. Roger played Rosencrantz or Guildenstern, I think. I had two roles (due to illness. Both small).
