When We Are Married

The story revolves around three married couples who learn that a legal technicality has rendered their marriages invalid. This revelation leads to comedic situations as they navigate the implications of their newfound single status. The play's exploration of marriage and legality offers a mix of humor and social commentary.

This specific adaptation aired live, marking it as the third version produced by the BBC. Due to the rarity of recordings from live broadcasts prior to 1953, this performance is now considered lost. The cast includes notable actors such as Raymond Huntley and Peter Cushing, lending their talent to this unique comedy.

For collectors of television history, this title represents an important piece of early BBC programming. Despite the lack of a physical recording, the play's legacy continues through its script and the impact it had on the portrayal of marriage in media.
