Explores the small percentage of plays in the BBC's 'Play for Today' series (1970-1984) which employed a non-white writer or director and/or portrayed the experiences of black and Asian communities in Great Britain, and considers how the use of location shooting served to open up the physical and cultural spaces of the series. Discusses a range of titles including 'A Hole in Babylon' (1979), 'Waterloo Sunset' (1979), 'The Garland' (1981) and '3 Minute Heroes' (1982). Part of the special issue 'Play for Today at 50'.
