Synopsis
National Theatre Live: Best of Enemies
In 1968 America, as two men fight to become the next president, all eyes are on the battle between two others: the cunningly conservative William F. Buckley Jr., and the unruly liberal Gore Vidal. During a new nightly television format, they debate the moral landscape of a shattered nation.
The Incomer
On an Orkney isle, two siblings survive by hunting seabirds, retelling the stories of their ancestors, and defending the isle from dreaded "incomers". Their world is upended with the arrival of an awkward council worker who has come to uproot them from their homeland.
