The Last Word - Before I Call You In

The Last Word a new series of monologues about dying begins on Monday, 25 August on BBC1 at 10.35pm. The first one is called "Before I Call You In", in which Sheila Hancock plays an invalid with a terminal illness recording a final message for her husband before she takes her own life in a Swiss assisted-suicide clinic.
Think this is going to be rather emotional, knowing what Sheila has gone through with the loss of John, but she's such a terrific actress that i'm looking forward to watching it, even if it does upset me.
