Re: Alan Bennet

I believe the OP is referring to Alan Bennet's series of monologues called Talking Heads..The story with the cracker starred Thora Hird I believe and referred to the poor unfortunate elderly woman who fell in her own home.She was left looking at the cracker that had fallen under her sofa in the time she was on the floor..It's being repeated on either BBC3 or 4

Quote:
1987 Talking Heads (A Chip in the Sugar, Bed Among the Lentils, A Lady of Letters, Her Big Chance, Soldiering On, A Cream Cracker Under the Settee)
From the link provided...and it was an excellent series in the true Bennet attention to character and everyday minutea.
