Tom Wilkinson and Rhys Ifans lead in this shattering meditation on human identity The playwright Caryl Churchill adapts her original play examining the issue of human cloning via a thoughtprovoking surprising and haunting fatherson drama
Salter a man in his early 60s is confronted by his adult son Bernard aka B2 who has discovered that genetic replicas of himself exist Salter initially blames the cloning on an unscrupulous hospital and assures B2 that he is the original of the clones Later another angrier son B1 shows up on Salters doorstep B1 confronts Salter and their interaction reveals that B1 is actually the original as a young widower Salter treated B1 poorly out of grief and decided to start over with a new version of his son
As more of Salters lies about his dark past are unveiled the brothers illusions are stripped away and they begin to question their individuality culminating in a climax both shocking and tragic
For a television adaptation the performances of Wilkinson and Ifans are up there with the original stage production that I saw at the Royal Court Theatre where the two protagonists were played by Michael Gambon and Daniel Craig However I was left disappointed with the final scene here which I feel has taken the easy option of applying the tricks of television rather than rely on careful staging and the quality of the script which is what I was used to and what I was expecting That said thats just me and dont let me put you off downloading what is at the end of the day I very good piece of drama If the Beeb could pull this off on a regular basis then wed all be much happier in our lives
