  1. The National Health

    about the play the 1973 film adaptation The National Health film The National Health is a play by Peter Nichols . Reminiscent of the Carry On films Carry On film series, this black comedy with tragic overtones focuses on the appalling conditions in an under funded national health hospital , which are contrasted comically with a Dr. Kildare style soap opera airing on the ward television. Originally entitled The End Beds , the play based on hospitals in which Nichols was treated for a collapsed lung originally was written for television, but the playwright received no enthusiastic response from anyone to whom he submitted it. When Kenneth Tynan and Laurence Olivier approached him to write a play for the Royal National Theatre National Theatre , Nichols offered them the slightly revised work, retitled The National Health . It premiered in 1969 and proved to be a critical and commercial success, named Best New Play by the Evening Standard . The BBC then asked Nichols if he would like to adapt the play for a television production. ref name TAP cite web url http www.bl.uk projects theatrearchive nichols6.html title Interview with Peter Nichols last Andrews first Jamie work Theatre Archive Project publisher The British Library accessdate 2008 07 29 ref In 1973, Nichols adapted his play for The National Health film a film version directed by Jack Gold .
