Episode 1: Taste
Charles Dance leads the cast as the urbane
Storyteller in dramatisations of five classic tales by Roald Dahl.
Bizarre and amusing by turns, these black comedies are justly famous for
their surprise endings.
In Taste, whenever Mike Schofield and Richard Pratt dine together, they
play a little game. If Pratt, a conceited wine buff, can identify a rare
vintage in a blind tasting, he wins a case of the wine in question.
When Schofield boasts that he has acquired a wine whose obscurity
renders it unguessable, Pratt suggests they increase their stakes. If he
fails to identify it, he forfeits both his houses but, if he succeeds,
he wins the hand of Schofield's delectable daughter in marriage. Despite
the girl's protests, Schofield agrees to the wager.
