A blurb from Koch Vision about Hedda Gabler: The Beautiful yet callous Hedda Gabler (Diana Rigg) fells trapped by her stifling marriage. Consumed by her passions and threatened by those around her, she yearns to have power over someone else’s destiny.
Another fine performance comes from the great Dame Diana Rigg with a Henrik Ibsen play entitled “Hedda Gabler”. The main story is about a love triangle between her husband George Tiesman and her friend’s former lover Eilert Lovvberg gets in the way. Hedda is almost played like a female version of “Hamlet”. This was performed as a play
In 1981 for Granada shown on Yorkshire television. The play also stars Denis Lil best known for “Only Fools and Horses” and “The Darling Buds Of May”.
VIDEO
The video quality is great! The performance was done on videotape and there are no dropouts of picture and sound. The performance is 78 minutes long.
Audio
Was originally recorded in Mono. It is also Mono on this set.

Verdict
A very well acted play. I am a sucker for Diana Rigg. A masterful performance by her. If you’re a fan of British TV. Pick this one up!
Rating: ****!
